Millipedes are pretty incredible arthropods - these critters are known for possessing hundreds of legs and peacefully munching on decaying wood and leaf litter on the forest floor. There are over 12,000 species of millipedes in the world, and fortunately, quite a few of them make great pets! Easy to care for and colorful, they are well suited for the beginner, and can live for several years under proper care. The single most important thing about housing millipedes is their substrate. Substrate acts as a place for the millipede to dig, eat, hide, drink, and live in. Millipedes are also great in housed in a group. They are not aggressive towards each other - just make sure to provide plenty of substrate, food, and hiding places.

  • Color/Pattern: This locale of pinkfoot millipede is a beige sandy brown color with lighter striping and light nearly white feet
  • Temperature: 65-78*F. It is fine to keep your millipedes at room temperature. For most species, the low to mid 70s are ideal. Supplemental heating in the form of a low wattage heat mat can be used if needed, but take care that it doesn't dry out your millipede's habitat too quickly
  • Size: at least 2-3" at the time of sale and can reach 5+" in length
  • Min Enclosure Size: at least twice as wide and long as the animal's length, and deeper than the length of your millipede. Substrates should consist of a mix of soil, wood, and leaves. Substrate should be about 4"-6" in depth, and kept moist at the bottom and allowed to very slightly dry out at the top. Millipedes will primarily feed on their substrate - they love decomposing wood and leaves! This should make up the bulk of their diet, making it necessary to change out spent substrate (appears as little dirt balls) with fresh substrate on a regular basis
  • Sexing: Millipedes are much easier to sex than you'd think. Count to the 7th body segment back from the head. If the legs look shorter/odd, you probably have a male on your hands! Males have external gonads (sex organs) instead of legs on their 7th segment
