This millipede was caught in Fresno California. They don't seem to mind being picked up gently. I caught five of these and they mated in my tank above ground with no shame. There is one in my tank that is a bit bigger than this one but I think this is normally the full size. I almost felt bad...
The millipedes did indeed bone. I have a lot of small ones now. I have no idea how many are in there but I'm gonna have to excavate my tank before they over crowd. If anyone is interested in trade for some let me know. I can get pictures. When they come to the top there is so many of them. They...
Here in central California it is almost summer but it isn't even spring yet. I think we had about three weeks of winter if not less. It's looking like another hot dry summer full of fires. The forests lost over a million trees last year. The bugs seem to be happy about it though.
The ones here I don't think eat anything but leaves and rotten wood. I give the ones I keep vegies but they eat them completely. I never see the ones in the backyard leave the leaf litter area and I have a lot of garden vegies flowers and whatever near them. They are never found in the garden...
Here in central California they seem to be able to live for up to 3 years in the back yard. Most probably die in 1 year. Indoors they may die a lot faster because its always warm. This is just what it seems like from watching the tons in the backyard. The ones here go from red to white as they...

I came to look for info on centipedes and millipedes. Just started to mess with the local ones about a week ago. Got my first two centipedes a few days ago. So much easier to live with than dogs and cats heheh
My brother and two others got bit by black widows and they said it was painful for a day or two and they felt like being on lsd a bit. None of them went for any medical treatment at all. No idea what they did to get bit. I don't think they would bite you unless you accidentally stepped on one or...
Got me nervous enough. I've never had a centipede but caught two tigers a few days ago when looking for millipedes. I notice they shark around under the coir so it is hard to know if they are there or not and I'm not filtering the substrate. I'll have to wait for the explosion of coir when they...
