Size: Giant Pink Foot Millipedes are big—adults can measure upwards of 5 inches long! These millipedes will be at least 2-3 when shipped from Josh's Frogs.
Age: Millipedes can live for several years in captivity when provided proper care. They'll be around 6 months at the time of sale.
Feeding: Millipedes will primarily feed on their substrate—they love decomposing wood and leaves! This should make up the bulk of their diet, making it necessary to change out spent substrate (which appears as little dirt balls) with fresh substrate on a regular basis.
You'll also want to provide the occasional fresh fruit or leafy greens, or diets such as Repashy Bug Burger, which provides a much-needed source of calcium.
