    So theyre like lazy Mogwai except they can eat after midnight? Awesome. I was wondering why my little spring doesnt move much. It (just chills in one spot unless I disturb). I noticed they misted her at the pet store,I let them know I saw/read that theyre a dry species, so I just let that dry out when I got it home, and havent misted since. I got one of the first two they ever have had, but I have researched prior because I almost ordered one online a few months ago. I didnt want one immediately but went in to buy more shrimp, saw the two velvet springs and got one of those instead! Im excited!! 🖤🕷🕸🖤

      If we took speeds of all new worlds vs all old worlds and averaged it out, I think we can BOTH agree that the average by far would be old worlds. For every say Tapi is an Aphonopelma. For every Psalmopoeus is a Brachypelma. But I can think of MAYBE three old worlds that wont make my heart drop a beat if it decides to bolt 😂

    OK, I get the dry part but how much ventilation do they need? I have an enclosure that does not have a lot of airflow. It’s a 10 gallon standing up with a door on the front. The door has holes in it. It’s one of those modification things from iHeart geckos. Would an enclosure like that work for these guys? I have several of these enclosures and I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to put in them. Since they are taller than they are wide, and they don’t have that much ventilation it’s challenging.

      So spiders never enjoy being handled ever so thats entirely up to you. Theyre more like fish - watch them, and you can enjoy them and hell, you can hold them to your enjoyment, but they wont ever get used to it, more like tolerate at best. But you are protecting them from birds and they get to live a safe life with you and you will love them and thats all that matters. 🥰

    • @juicesarthropods
      @juicesarthropods 18 дней назад

      3x their length on all sides is considered the "baseline" by most millipede people, which is technically the CORRECT way to do things, the 37 gallon home depot bin is essentially the "ballin on a budget" option. My soil depth IS around 1.5ft deep and you find them because they hang out on TOP about 80% of the time to be honest! Hope this clarifies!

    • @juicesarthropods
      @juicesarthropods Месяц назад

      In my experience, you want to just ensure that you don't feed her TOO big of a mealworm.- try not to exceed one the size of her body for mealworms, size of her abdomen for everything else. As for when spraying, it will depend on what city and state you live in but if its similar to Hayward, CA in humidity, then thats correct!

      A couple reasons. 1. We have about a hundred times more laws on what species we can buy or import etc. 2. 99% of the biodiversity in the world for arthropods are in the "old world" countries. 3. Importing arthropods for original breeding stock costs $3500-$5k so breeders who are attempting to breed new species have to pass the costs on to the customer. 4. Lots of countries or continents cannot even sell to the U.S. due to APHIS and USFW laws. There are so many more reasons why but the main main main one is that European laws are null for bugs essentially.

Looks like it has white teeth but I think it’s just fur. It has been living on my porch on a witch’s broom decoration for weeks. Is it going to stay there forever? I see it everyday. Another question is we’re supposed to get a hurricane soon and I am slightly worried about it. ( this is so bizarre to say because I have such a fear of spiders. Like freeze can’t move fear. For some reason this one doesn’t scare me. ) can they survive high winds and rain?

      To the broom question: They will stay until it no longer works for them. They really kind of do whatever they want. If theyre finding food and nobody wrecks their hammock area, theyll keep returning if they feel safe. As for can they survive winds and rains, yes theyll just climb to an area where there are no winds and rain

    Okay, but a lot of cats are really good at making their jumps. 😅

      Eh. Watch a cat long enough, they will fail more often than they succeed. Their eyes are garbage 😂

    You missed a very important pro point. They're really really pretty in that subtle elegance way. Everyone talks about the yellow knees, but the booty spots and the faint pink hue to their hair gets me. Gives you something to admire while trying to fight them for their water dish.

      You are ABSOLUTELY right - and thats my bad. I was so wrapped up in trying to seperate their beauty from that of the Grammastola pulchra, that I failed in describing the beauty they have of their own. Good catch!

    They're definitely not as hardy to me in my experience. I recently got an ivory and she died in less than a month. She was doing well at first, eating and pooping, but she was overly surface-active, and never burrowed. A few days ago it got a little hotter than usual, a few degrees higher than 80F, and she was gone. My N. americanus lives in the same enclosure and he had no issues at all. He was underground during the day and was able to escape the heat. I have no idea what the true cause of death was, but I'm not getting another one. I'll just stick with N. americanus, they're the truly hardy ones.

      Oh, I for the record 100% agree that a N. americanus is and always will be a hardier millipede, and 99% of the Ivorys unfortunately are nowadays wild caught. The captive bred ones are INCREDIBLY hardy, but theyre also far more expensive so most people just dont. I am truly sorry to hear the passing of your millipede 😭

      @@juicesarthropods I was told that she was captive bred but I guess you never know.

      Millipedes as a whole are unfortunately, aside from a couple, just very sensitive. Where you live vs where theyre from can change so much. I would hope people claiming captive bred are being factual, but yes to your point some vendors lie. I highly recommend getting to know vendors, we WANT your business but if we are worth our weight in salt, we also know our sh*t and can communicate plainly - I hope this won't turn you off from trying again with a TRULY remarkable millipede, but do recommend getting a couple at a time if possible!
