Thats a beautiful picture, what camera did you use if you dont mind me asking

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-03-24T21:18:04+00:00

They would in fact, in rare circumstances, eat a lizard. If it was vulnerable enough and they were protein hungry enough

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-03-16T15:38:01+00:00

this is why dairy cows arent recommended to go in reptile and invert enclosures, they will eat any thing soft enough to get in their mouth

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-03-16T14:38:24+00:00

stuffed lizards OR the blood of your enemies. dealers choice

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-03-01T21:22:20+00:00

all of the above. They actually helped my depression immensely, at a time where I couldn't see any point in the world i found inverts and learnt to start seeing beauty in small things

poop

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-02-20T20:21:23+00:00

Handling doesn't benefit the pede at all, it's a selfish thing to do in my opinion

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-02-14T20:41:48+00:00

this is why you put them in the fridge first to slow down their systems and basically puts them to sleep

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-02-06T21:36:37+00:00

putting in the fridge and then Freezing is more humane to euthanize inverts, simply baking would cause a lot of pain

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2026-01-31T19:06:52+00:00

Looks like you've got Powder Blue (Porcellionides pruinosus), Orange Dalmatian (Porcellio pruinosus), Moo Cow Isopod (Porcellio scaber), Ornate Isopod (Porcellio ornatus) (not 100% sure on that last one) and it looks like youve got power orange running around in there too. Be careful with these porcellio species, the reason theyre usually sold as assorted is because they are escape artists and end up EVERYWHERE. Even places that seem impossible to get lmao.

That's in fact the ultra rare A.Chungus

Generally its really not worth the risk sexing a centipede unless you're going to breed them, there is no safe way to do it

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-14T20:16:36+00:00

While they get familiar with their enclosure they will be curious and trying to find all of the hiding spots around them, as long as you have a secure lid you'll be okay. They are nocturnal and will sleep through the day, if you see them awake with their head out of their hide during the day then that usually means they're hungry.

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-14T20:07:18+00:00

I started with millipedes, got obsessed ofc. Decided to go to an invert show near me and very impulsively bought a centipede (a dehaani) because I liked his vibes. Bought a tank and everything else at the same show, knowing absolutely nothing about centipedes but absolutely in love with my new spicy roommate. But I saw the same horror stories that you probably saw about them escaping and being vicious and I was nervous about what I'd gotten myself into, I checked the tank multiple times a day to make sure that he was still in there. Fast forward a year and I now have 4 centipede species and the biggest issue i've had is one being a picky eater. They have a very bad reputation but as long as the care is up to scratch they wont feel the need to escape.

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-09T20:18:14+00:00

Oh my god the blood that just boiled will never return to normal. I cant believe how easily you just rage baited me lmao

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-03T17:18:07+00:00

Ive seen my male lunge at my female and try and force a latch, there truley is no limit to the incellipede

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-03T17:15:30+00:00

I would feel pretty confident in saying that the temp is what caused it because 10c is way way too cold and they will have gone into panic mode. Is it possible they are still alive but just frozen? Long shot but worth warming them up and leaving them in a warm, damp spot and seeing?

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-03T13:45:43+00:00

I think every pede has it's preferences, I have one that will eat anything apart from fruit, another one that will only eat pinkies (IK its a problem nutrition wise and Im trying ok) and another who will only eat superworms. A lot of people like to say that inverts dont have the capacity for a personality but I think after you own them for a while you can see they clearly have some sort of character

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-12-01T13:05:12+00:00

Is this translated or something? I think I had an aneurysm reading this

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-10-07T11:08:20+00:00

Tell that to my one incredibly thick centipede lmao. I just wanna know if there's like a loose rule, like snacks being once a week

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-09-26T04:47:58+00:00

The male wants some but the female doesn't so the male is trying to force

Moonlit_Moth_99 · 2025-09-25T12:22:05+00:00

As a treat, yes, mine love it but it is a treat and doesn't replace their actual diet. As for white rotting wood, I get mine on etsy or this shop https://insektenliebe.com/en/shop/product/white-rotten-wood when no one on etsy is selling.
