Dark brown to gray and reaching about 4 inches long, they often have orange to red legs lending them the name cherry foot millipedes. Adult body coloration is dark brown to gray with reddish-orange banding. One of the great conveniences about keeping millipedes as pets is how easy they are to feed. Millipedes are omnivores, so they eat pretty much anything and everything. Everything from fruits and vegetables to bits of dried pet food are eaten but these should all be considered supplements. Millipede enthusiasts enjoy the fact that many species get quite large and can be kept together in colonies. Millipedes are generally safe to handle, but all species should be considered dangerous to the extent that they can emit toxic chemicals. Children should be supervised and hands should be washed before and after handling. Millipedes are regularly used as "hands on" teaching aids by many educators around the world.

I bought a giant millipede for my preschool classroom. The delivery was fast, but the Insect was dead upon arrival. The company has not responded to e-mails or phone calls in regards to a replacement or a refund. Would not recommend.

I had my millipede for about a month and it died, my students were so sad the day we came in and found it. The millipede stopped eating which might have been a fluke thing. I plan on buying another to see if we have the same result.

Arrived alive (delivered to Texas in winter). About 4 inches long. Seems healthy. Habitat is small but probably fine for short term. I upgraded to a cubical tank with more substrate and hiding spots so it could also fully stretch out and move around at night.. My 6yo daughter will love it I think. We wanted a pet that she could handle occasionally but that doesnt require live food. (she really wanted a snake). They are supposed to live a long time if you take good care of them. I am a bit worried about maintaining humidity levels while avoiding mold but we'll see how it goes. I will try to update in a month or so..
