Iβm so glad I got to capture this tiny portrait and learn more about these leggy little neighbors!
Whatβs the coolest tiny creature youβve found lately? Let me know in the comments!

Just a bunch of #millipedes hanging around and munching on some blueberries (their favorite). π«
I love these dudes, the new terrarium makeover is doing well, the moss is looking nice and green!

I love these mini millipedes. My little colony of #mauiskunkstripemillipedes is slowly growing and I love them so much. Iβm hoping to have them available soon. #spirobolellusspmaui #millipedes #orchidsinverts #isellbugs

My millipede is a bit cracked. I hope Chris is ok. She's my baby.

Maria and Johannes died. RIP.
Molt went wrong. I don't know why. Chris, Will and Pat molted well.

A macro shot of a juvenile millipede showing its head and the front 1/5th of the animal. It is white with white legs and a pinkish/tan head. The back of the millipede has darker brown which is barely showing the edge of in the photo.
Quick shot of an Ivory millipede juvenile (Chicobolus spinigerus "Miami, FL") half coiled up just kind of chilling.

One of the joys of poking around iNaturalist is learning about organisms I had never heard about. Enough surprises to fill several lifetimes. E.g., here are millipede assassins doing their thing in Namibia. #inaturalist #hemiptera #millipedes #namibia www.inaturalist.org/observations...

Grabbed a few pictures of a Benoitolus sp. "Khao Sok" millipede. Also took one half illuminated with a UV light to show how this species will fluoresce.

#Millipedes are such goofy little guys. Only nibble decaying leaves and exist. Head empty, no thoughts. No taxes no crime. Just long with many legs.
An female adult Ivory Millipede forages for freeze dried peas on flake soil. It has the Ivory piano key style morphology, however in a departure from the normal appearance of mostly black on the top, the white portion goes all the way around as a stripe.
Here is a better photo that I took of the Brooksville, FL locality of Chicobolus spinigerus.

a millipede with slightly cloudy coloration on its exoskeleton (which is black with dark purple stripes and piano key white leading to the underside of the millipede. The millipede has recently molted and is eating its shed exoskeleton.

A young adult male Ivory millipede investigates another young adult male ivory millipede. They both have the traditional piano key black and white morphology, however they have retained a visible amount of the juvenile purple, which is one of the notable things about this locality.

about half of a young adult millipede is in frame with the focus on the head . It is foraging around some rotten hardwood (which is a primary food source) for other treats. It is black, purple, and white banded and is a large species of millipede.
Young adult male Chicobolus spinigerus "Elliot Key, FL" millipede foraging for snacks. Ivory millipedes are one of the most surface active and personable species of millipedes I have encountered.

a juvenile millipede with purple and black horizontal stripes is rearing up the front 1/7th of its body while an older one forages that is about 3 to 4 times larger and has quite a bit less purple striping replaced with more black with white (approaching their eventual full adult morphology of black and white piano key markings)
Two juvenile Chicobolus spinigerus "Elliot Key, FL" millipedes forage around for their favorite snacks.

Two millipedes mating in the grass.
Found these two millipedes being fruitful and multiplying when I took the trash out this morning.
