    RIP pretty lady

    Meera was the African Millipede at the arthropod place I work at. She passed away on Tuesday and I don't know why- one of my supervisors checked on her on Saturday and she'd been ok.
    I know animals pass, sometimes for no reason, but I'm still kicking myself. It may not be 'my fault' but I was the one responsible for her care and she's gone, so it feels like my fault. And now we are SOL in regards to millipedes. She was our last one our breeder is on the east coast and doesnt ship in the winter so it may be awhile before we can replace her. I will be on the east coast over break and half jokingly offered to pick them up but I don't know if I could fly them back with me

    RIP Meera. You were a beautiful girl

    Oh no I'm so sorry I had two millipedes when I was younger and they are so much fun to take care of. And try not to beat yourself up about it, I know you cared for her very well. It's not your fault.
