hey guys, i just came home with my first centipede, a Scolopendra subsinipes "Mai Chau". Its only about 1.5" right now. how fast to these grow, and do i feed it like a spiderling, one small cricket every few days, or more often? i forgot to ask when i got it, we were talking t's and it slipped my mind.

i feed my pedelings about every 5-6 days a couple of crickets which are no more then about 20% of the length of the pede im not sure how long it take them to grow but i have had a s.cingulata from a 1" pedeling and its now about 4" that in the 8 months i had it also what i have noticed is that the pedelings need slighter higher humidity then the adults
