Smaller millipede

[GreenAcresInverts]

I am fascinated by many of the smaller millipede species. Here are a few that I am currently keeping.  I have successfully bred Brachycybe Lecontii.  I am hoping to breed the Octoglena gracilipes And Petaserpes rosalbus cope.

What do you think the trick to Brachycybe is? They seem to do good for nine months and then a few months later not so much.

I've heard it was a consistent supply of the mold that grows on the wood they are found on.

I provide a continuous source of polypore. I have a colony that is just over 3 years old.

They eat bracket fungi? The thin or thick ones?
