Hey guys! Thanks to dizzychef - just found this thread! Thought I'd drop by and say HI!
I was reading up on the earlier posts- only got thru maybe half way!

ETA: I'm a noob to pedes- so looking forward to learning something from you guys!
I have 2 Scolopendra subspinipes subspinipes and 2 Scolopendra subspinipes dehaani

Hmmm~ guys, may i ask? Cherry Red Centipede Adult Size is how long? 16CM izzit Adult ady? or just Sub-Adult?

Everyone's posted very beautiful pictures. Must say that I envy what you guys are having. Cherries never fail in photoshoots despite proving difficult to pause for a still pic. Lol!

Psst...Oldfart. Close up pics taken from the lateral view of the pede's trunk will amaze you even more. Try spotting it's spiracles. Your fat 7 incher will make a good model for this purpose.

I will try to take some pics- as of now either they've burrowed or they've escaped!
I think they've burrowed- unless they've managed to climb plastic!

ETA: Took one of my photos and blew it up- think you can see the spiracles, not super clear but it is identifiable

Nice! Take good care of it! Be careful, she ll eat the eggs if feel stress

thanks for the comments bro...do i need to feed her during this time?.... comments are much appreciated..

U may wanna feed it killed crix or raw meat if u noticed her being very skinny
But its best not to feed for 3-4month period until the pedeling can survive by their own
Read more here, though its for scolopendra genus but i think it shld change much for rhysida genus
