Meet the Camillas. These are a pair of fire spotted millipedes ( Centrobolus splendidus ) from Mozambique. Yes, they are both named Camilla. We can't differentiate between them, and my daughter can't say "millipede", so she calls them Camillapedes. I love it! I've never kept this particular species before, but I am hoping that they will be okay. They are currently living in a Braplast tub with plenty of damp coco fibre and some wert moss, so they should be happy enough.
This blog aims to document my quest to cure my arachnophobia, but also to educate about arachnid anatomy, behaviour, and oddities.
They're cuter than you think!
