Common name - Candy Ball Millipede
Scientific name - Rhopalomeris carnifex
The listing is for captive bred bulk quantities, of a highly sought-after species of pill-millipede that is famous for its ability to conglobate (roll-up), and its contrasting red, yellow and black markings. Although tropical pill-millipede species are notorious for not being able to breed in captivity, this species is one of the select few that are able to be captive bred with relative ease.
These are CAPTIVE BRED in my collection, with this stock originating from Thailand, Asia.
The juveniles and adults feed mainly on decaying wood and leaf mulch (decayed leaf litter). Additional supplements such as calcium (limestone/cuttlefish bone), moss, and protein such as fish food should be offered as part of their balanced diet.
