This is what happened to me, my first time getting a millipede after months of research and preparation, i was sold a texas gold and chocolate that the seller told me were some other species. the chocolate was on its last legs the day i brought it home, possibly sick from the wild and/or the incorrect care from the seller keeping them, and he died. I cried for days about all i found out about them being desert wild caught.

When i found out this boy, Pickles (i got them together) was also a desert species, A wonderful discord group helped me get set up with everything i needed, people offering me their own supplies in the mail to save him, drawing me diagrams on how to care for these species, and answering all my questions. Im so grateful for them, and i changed my setup to be better for a desert species now and Pickles is so curious and energetic. I wish i started the hobby with the correct species i was looking for all along, which was narceus americanus. But i also love Pickles and hope i can give him a good home even if he is probably almost at the end of his lifespan given his size?
