#610651 Inme-rock View Profile	Red legged millipede hi ive got a red legged millipede. am i right in think its a male because it is shiny(females are dull)? i have got it in a tank which is about 2 times the lengh of the millipede i keep it quite humid and give it apples, bannas, mushrooms, tomatoes, carrot ect is this ok for it? i also scrape cuttlefish onto its food for its calcium and leave a chunk in for it, it has a shallow water dish in . i have a heat mat under half of its tank and have leaf mold for its substrate and have given it hiding places if any of this is wrong or if im missing any thing then please tell me!!!!
