What a beauty..ive got a Dehanni coming, my first centipede. Grats Dude!
they make me shiver....I don't have a clue why, millipedes don't.....just these guys...
To me, they look like armored, many legged tanks. Apparently all the subspinipes sp are pretty venomous, and wont hesitate to bite. I was going to keep my 5" specimen in a cheese ball container with deep sub with a cork hide and leaves, etc. Now I'm reading about them chewing out of plastic enclosures..im thinkin glass. Yeah glass good.Thing is @Hisserdude , we get them inside, and I get something and nudge them onto it, put them in the leave pile I keep behind the bushes for those things, they just give me shivery chills...It's not fear so much, I don't freak out over them and I'm always protective of them, they just kind of gross me out...and they are pretty neat looking little guys but......-shivers-

now see after 25+ years in Florida I'm ok with them, they are all over the panhandle,Yeah, that's how I feel about certain flies, in particular these guys: http://bugguide.net/node/view/134 I'm not outright scared of them, they just give me the willies. I saw one while I was living in FL, it freaked me out, the way it moved and looked... So yeah, I kinda understand how you feel lol!
