Giant Millipede

[sandtiger]

Here he is, got him about a week before Christmas from my GF as a early gift. He does not have an official name but so far we have been calling him Bill Paxton, and yes...he is a male.

His tank

He like pears, they are his favorite so far

Here he is meeting the oscars and the rabbit.

You could almost see the O's drooling. I'm sure they were thinking, "Please, please throw him in the tank".

i would put him on my sholders and let him walk back and forth like a bird and go to stores. i guess it would tickle a little tho.

It does tickle...a lot. I tried getting him on my shoulder for a photo but he didn't like the shirt fabric or something because he wouldn't do it. I would be afraid of him falling off anyway...despite all the legs they aren't very good climbers and are pretty heavy.

That thing is cool! I've been trying to talk rallysman into letting me get some hissing cockroaches. So far no go.

They were very excited to see him!!! It would take them awhile to take him down though and I believe they have a nasty taste.
