Foggy haters are so weird. But especially those who hate foggy in Matt’s name like you know Matt would fucking hate you right? He would defend Foggy to you, till his last breath and then BLAME himself for being the reason someone hates Foggy. If you hate Foggy you hate Matt Murdock. Point blank.
I love millis so so much, I want to keep some as pets one day :0 probably an American giant millipede and maybe one or two ivory millipedes, they're both native where I am!
My favorite milli, tho, is Apheloria virginiensis, for their vibrant yellow and pink stripes and cream bellies!! They're so pretty :3
tell me abt your favorite millipedes or cool facts you have :D
HELLO!! Apheloria virginiensis really are pretty!!, however, my favourite as to be Archispirostreptus gigas, Otherwise known as the Giant African Millipede! I find them really interesting. Also, they have an impressive size!
I’m going to be calling Archispirostreptus gigas GAM for short as that’s easier to say. GAM are actually relatively easy to care for! They require a heat range of 20-24°C or 98-75°F.
Diet!
One thing to note about GAM is they’re scavengers! They commonly feast on damp and decaying or rotting wood, manure, grass clippings, and decaying fruits. In captivity, a large part of their diet consists of leaf litter and quality millipede substrate. Supplemented with millipede safe fruit and veggies ofcourse! As all millipedes do, GAM require calcium. This calcium should be either given to them by supplementing their soil, or providing cuttlefish bone for them to nibble on over time.
EXTRA !!!
• Millipedes don't have eyes; they use a pair of antennae to sense what's around them!
• GAM are small, and usually confident with handling. However, you should still be careful with holding and handling small animals!
• GAM will die if their soil becomes dry. They require damp soil as that’s how they drink! They also benefit from a small shallow water bowl. Emphasis on small & shallow!
• GAM can live up to 10 years! It’s a big commitment, but worth it in my eyes.
• Their soil must be deep enough for them to fully submerge themselves to molt.
• The body of the giant African millipede has 40 or more body segments, with four legs (two pairs) per individual segment. Each time a GAM molts, it adds one body segment with four legs!
• however being small compared to other things, they’re the largest millipede species alive. They can grow to 1 foot long!
I was inspired by @tropicalsteppe 's Isopod puppy drawing drew a couple of my favorite arthropods all cute and with some artistic liberty with the anatomy :3

This First one is a queen winter ant! P. imparis! One of my favorite ants <3
I was waiting to upload this until I got around to doing one that was the worker of this species but I just don't have the time any time soon…
The second one is a millipede, heavily based on N. americanus
