African Giant Black Millipedes are large, slow moving, and extremely docile arthropods. These animals are easy to care for because, as scavengers, they eat just about anything (they especially love cucumber). When frightened, they will curl up in a ball. Millipedes secrete a defensive liquid from their exoskeleton, so it is a good idea to wash your hands after handing them. Due to their docile nature, millipedes can live in groups of various sizes.

Captive Requirements
Housing: Cage size depends on number and size of millipedes; I have a a 66 L mixed millipede
and cockroach tank, but 10 to 20 L is sufficient for a few
Communal: Yes; can also be housed with roaches
Diet: Fruit, veggies, bread, fish food, etc.
Substrate: Plenty of soil and moss to allow burrowing
Decor: Cork bark, plants, food & water dishes
Temperature: 23.9 to 29.4° C (75 to 85° F)
Humidity: Moderately high, keep substrate damp
Temperament: Docile
Considerations: The perfect pet for a first-time arthropod owner
