I bought a copy! Good book with a fair amount of new material over the previous book. Great addition for those who really want to get a jump into the deep end of millipede keeping. Highly recommended!

I know a millipede geek on the West coast of Canada. PM me your email address and I will forward it to them.

They are available if you have the money. Try here: https://ugrwholesale.com/shop/inverts/giant-african-millipede/

Very cool looking millis! Not the biggest but certainly nicely colored. Let me know if you come up with some spares!

Outstanding!

Yes I do. Personally, I have found Spirostreptidae sp 1, 6, and 8 all tend to hang out on the surface. 

Afraid not. The colony slowly faded away 1 milli at a time. Never saw mating nor found any eggs.

I've tried the small ones a couple times... failed miserably! !

Wait until you see photos of Spirostreptus servatius! Hopefully I can get some good shots of those this week.

Thanks! This should be an easy species for you to get 😀

Thanks! They are a good size. Unfortunately, they are no where near the size of an average AGB though. I do have a couple large species that I need to add photos of.

Time for a very overdue update! Alas, all 5 of the immatures I had died. It took about 2 years for all to die. Not sure what the problem was.  After several years, I managed to find some more! I was sent 3 males and 3 females, all captive bred adults. So I had high hopes they would do well...

Not big enough! The males are about 4 1/2" and the females about 5". I was told they would reach 7", but suspect they won't get there. They are a little bulkier then N. americanus.

It has been a long wait... but we have success! The tank is loaded with babies. Seems they have been around for a while as some are dark and fairly long. Oddly, the adults are now commonly found above the surface. And they all like pumpkin!

Very pretty! 

Very nice!! I don't think I have ever had that species. Hope they do well for you!

? Like I said, I have not spoken Norwegian in 30+ years. So much forgotten... Do you have Mantis religiosa in Norway? We had that species in Chicago so I assume it could survive the winter in Norway.

God dag I dag, Halvor! Hvordan gar det med die.  Sorry, I have not spoken your language in many years. I fear I have forgotten most of it. And my keyboard does not have the Norwegian letters. Welcome to the forum! I hope you get a chance to get some mantids when it warms up. I remember how...

Sticky... sounds like a nice sized milli! Is she your only AGB? I have bought 9 AGBS from Wards. All were females. I did ask for a male once but no luck. That said, I did get 9 good sized adult females.

That would be great! My Mardonius colony suffered major losses this summer.
