Re: another pede for me!!
Creepiness.. really cool closeup pic there. They are facinating to me.. even though they kinda scare me.
Re: another pede for me!!
hmmm.
there are centipedes sold around here as feeders [for fish, i guess], they kinda look like that one. i could post a photo, is it easy to identify 'pedes by sight? just wondering, and if you would be interested to check 'em out.
Re: another pede for me!!
The first time I seen one of those bad boys take down a live mouse I was stunned. That is one powerfull and aggressive insect for sure. The storys I have heard about pede bites are scary as hell, I couldnt imagine, then again a rat bite can be pretty bad.
Re: another pede for me!!
Woah.... SWEEEEET! I love the colors on that bugger! :sunny:
Re: another pede for me!!
Ahh, love those guys. I had 5 of them. Mean, totally aggressive, FAST little suckers. :D
I love watching them clobber prey... total chaos and brute force.
Re: another pede for me!!
Wow! Those pics are amazing. I didn't realize that they were that aggressive toward their prey. Is that just this type of pedes or all pedes? Could someone post a size comparison please?
Re: another pede for me!!
Some pedes are more aggressive than others. This species is a lot more likely to come after you, as well as its prey, than say, polymorphia, but all pedes tend to be fairly aggressive eaters.
Re: another pede for me!!
yeah this species is pretty agressive. if i mess around with her,she'll run around trying to bite or she tries to "whip me" with her tails.
