This is a Complete Habitat Kit for one or more millipedes. Everything you need in one tub to keep your millipede happy and thriving.
Millipedes love rich oaky environments and that is what we created through research and experience with our own millipedes. The star of the kit is the substrate which is designed to be full of nutrients while staying light and fluffy.
Two sizes available
- Small 6 quart tub ( 13 x 8 x 5") - Best for individuals or more smaller species of millipedes.
- Large 16 quart tub (16 x 12 x 7") - Best for giant species or multiple millipedes.
Includes:
- Setup Instructions
- Tub with small holes on top for ventilation. (Small 6 qt or Large 16 qt)
- Millipede substrate mix, enriched with calcium and hardwood (Small 1.5 lbs, Large 3 lbs)
- Mixed Leaf Litter Bag (includes any three: Pin Oak, Mulberry, Sea Grape, Willow, or Live Oak) (Small 1 quart, Large 1 gallon)
- Pieces flat freshwater driftwood (Small 2 pieces, Large 4 pieces)
- Sphagnum moss
- Lotus Pod Treat
This setup will sustain most millipedes for about 8 months. At that time, additional leaf litter and food will need to be provided. While a millipede's main food source is their substrate, they do enjoy the occasional fresh fruit and vegetable.
