no matter where i touch her she is mad. on the head is just as bad as the back i think she is going to molt within the month because she seems really defensive right now.i use to be able to pet her head with my finger but now she freaks when i get close. and its colors are getting darker. :clap: oh and travis im pretty sure if this pede got ahold of me it wouldnt be worth the pics i have seen both of my pedes try to bite at what they are walking on to see if they can go through it. im still to much of a wuss to hold a pede maybe my female reaglis after her next molt ;P .

Cool, ..welp, mine just died today, had it for a couple of years. No more molts for this doood. I bet you didn't get much growth on that one with the molt(?), it's a pretty big one:eek:

Nice pede.

Don't call yourself a wuss just because you refuse to hold your pede. I refuse to hold mine and I hold all of my inverts including the Death Stalker scorpions. The pede scares the crap out of me and it's only 6"!

Todd, was it a captive bred centipede or was it wild caught?

Looks like the de haani sold as "Vietnamese". Did it add some girth?

Wow I didn't expect it get so much bigger since it was as big as it was, that's pretty cool. Still looks a little wrinkly.

It was a wild caught subspinipes that died, "Malaysian Giant(?)", only subspinipes I had. Though one of my heros heros CBs died several days ago, I'll post a pic in a new thread later cuz it's kinda weird but seen the prob before.

the reason that i asked was because based on my readings, i got the idea that CB lives a lot longer and if yours is captive bred and it died after a couple of years, then what i have read may be wrong, but since it's a wild caught, then cool.
