The listing is for 1x captive bred animal, of a highly sought-after species of millipede that is famous for its vivid, pink colouration and dramatic spiny body that give it a dragon-like appearance.
These are CAPTIVE BRED in my collection, with this stock originating from Thailand, Asia. Please note that this is a small species and fully grown adults measure around 30 mm.
The 3 sizes available are:
1. Small - 0.5-1 cm juveniles
2. Medium - 1-1.5 cm grown on juveniles

The juveniles and adults feed mainly on decaying wood and leaf mulch (decayed leaf litter). Additional supplements such as calcium (limestone/cuttlefish bone), fruits & veg, moss, and protein such as fish food should be offered as part of their balanced diet.
