[QUOTE="Reptiliatus, post: 239500, member: 5339"] Hey guys, So I'm not sure what inspired this interest because honestly, although I love animals passionately, I have always had some sort of a fear of centipedes. The speed, the legs, the venom, they gave me the heebie-jeebies! I always like to research the husbandry of various animals, regardless if I own any or not and so basically I started learning more about them, their care, etc, watched some youtube videos and..... Well here I am since last week/this week's purchases xD! Yes, I know how venomous and large Scolopendra are, I have been keeping inverts for years and I would never buy such an animal without knowing this information. What have I gotten myself into... ;) Enjoy! Giant Vietnamese centipede (Scolopendra subspinipes) [IMG]http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/b635/Reptiliatus/1D5D45B6-C1A0-4D35-BC9F-3A0D3FEBA8C5-231-0000006466F7616F_zpsc757216d.jpg[/IMG] Tanzanian blue leg (Scolopendra sp.) don't worry, she's in a new enclosure now :) .
