[QUOTE="ScienceGirl, post: 240523, member: 7015"] What has been on the menu for your millipede? How did you choose to house it? The largest one I've ever kept was found two summers ago; it was about 2" long, I think, and very thick. Another thing, they have trouble vertically and upside down when horizontal. Don't drop a millipede! This causes them to die, eventually. The big millipede died after falling many times. :( His end was strange: discolored brown, smelly foam came out of its mouth as it writhed. It was a disturbing, strange, and probably preventable death. My advice: take every measure to prevent a fall. Good luck and keep me posted! :) [/QUOTE]
