Get started with millipede keeping with our  millipede starter kit. The kit has all the essentials to keep one of the true giants of the arthropod world, the Giant African Train Millipede. These gentle giants make fascinating pets and are simple to look after, requiring just a bit of fresh veg or fruit to supplement the wood and leaf litter food/substrate supplied with the kit.

Why we’ve chosen these items:

Exo Terra Faunarium Large 37 x 22 x 25cm is the perfect size to provide a compact, affordable, and spacious home for your millipede, featuring a top-opening ventilated lid. The enclosure provides enough depth for the millipede to carry out it’s natural behaviour which includes burrowing when it wants to moult or lay eggs. Fill the enclosure to around half it’s height with damp coco coir, mix in the leaf litter, top off with the woodland leaves and the decayed wood and damp moss, add the cork bark hide and you now have an ideal home for your millipede.

Cuttlefish bone provides a source of calcium for your pet, making sure it maintains a healthy, sturdy exoskeleton. Maintain the enclosure’s humidity with ProRep’s spray bottle, an essential item in keeping all invertebrates. In the end, you’ve got a great set up for your train millipede.
