Caring for train millipedes

Tank needs to be 12inches by 12 inches in size at least
Feeding:
Change the food daily. You could feed it:
Fruit; apples (make sure to peel off the skin first) ,bannana,pear,tomato, ect...
Vegatables, the millipedes are mostly found in the jungle so salad and mushroom are its favourotes. I have actuly made a game for mine it is kinda like running time trials make a long ish path and see how long it takes to get to the end.

Water the mllipede, in a smaller food bowl put some water not to deep or your milly will drown

Habitat:
Spray the tank daily so it stays wet for the millipede. Try to not hit the millipede. Include vines or tunnels so the millipede can hide from the bright sun. If possible keep out of direct light.

Handling:
Handle the creature with great care. Be warned that the creature produces a toxin called cionide witch can make you ill.

Mites:
You may seem to find little tiny bugs on your pet. They are mites. DO NOT REMOVE THEM!!!!! They clean the pede and fight off any nasty white mites. The brown ones are good.

Poo:
Remove any poo you find.

Breeding:
Millipede males are missing a pair of legs the seventh segment back. Females arnt.
Dont change the soil if you are planning to breed because the parents will dig tiny tunnels for the babies.

Extras:
You could get a baby mouse carcuss and put it in. The millipede will slowly scrape away the skin and a skelliton will be there, neat huh?
