    Dear Petko, I'll never get tired of how you use the present and past tenses interchangeably in your sentences 😂
    As someone who speaks English as a second language, I understand why that happens, and I like that you don't try to edit out your mistakes.
    Oh, and by the way your latin is spot on!

      Where are you from ? I’m French and we pronounce some of the syllables differently than Petko in Latin language, his accent is probably what causes the differences in pronunciation. But even with that I agree with you on the fact that Petko is one of the best Latin speaker in the hobby, some species names are skinned alive by the speaker on others channels.

    • @HalcyonSkies
      @HalcyonSkies Před 3 lety +3

      Every resource I've seen lists dalmatica as a separate species from cingulata. Nothing I've found has listed dalmatica as a colour form for cingulata, and no image of a cingulata shows them with anything close to that coloration. Possible I haven't done enough digging, but just the results I have found thus far seem to lean in the direction of this being a Scolopenda dalmatica, as even the known distribution of dalmatica almost exclusively falls in Croatia.

      @@HalcyonSkies I know, there is not a lot of information about this subject. But still, there are a few people in Croatia that bred cingulatas, and they produced both the normal stripes ones AND the blue legged variant, from striped parents... The other thing that definitely does not make sense is two big centipede species (whose lnly difference is their coloring) to live simpatrically in the same place. I found both color forms under the same stones and logs, multiple times, so I don't know...

    @Phyzium1 Před 3 lety +3

    I have a similar looking centipede with blue legs called Scolopendra viridis. Mine has a moist enclosure and has a network of tunnels in the substrate. It is mostly found in Florida, so the natural habitat may be different from yours. It only comes out at night, but it has a favorite resting spot in a tunnel next to the wall, so I can see it all the time.
    I usually put a roach in there, and the next morning I just find a couple legs and an empty shell. Sometimes I catch a softer insect, like a mayfly or alderfly and stick it in the enclosure as food instead. It went two months without eating when I first got it, but I always keep a water dish inside. It usually eats once or twice per week now.
    I've never had a centipede that just stays on the surface, or under cork bark.

    These centipedes seem very stressed or perhaps they have ingested something bad when in the wild. Most pesticides don't have a direct affect on big insects like this, but they do ingest bugs that have been poisoned and can die from that.

    Well I'm not a centipede expert, but out of the two croatian species this is definitely more similar to S. dalmatica. And yeah, the terminal legs do seem to be considerably longer than the rest, which is a trait of S. dalmatica based on my research (they're roughly the same lenght at S. cingulata). The blue legs are also commonly observed on S. dalmatica while cingulata usually has a more brownish-yellowish coloration, often with dark banding on each segment.

    Blue legs?!? Very days a school day!
    Also that’s really cool to have living in County. We have very small centipedes in Britain, the largest I have seen is around 1+1/2” or about 4 centimetres.

    Whatever happened to the policy on feeding linda first, for ANY feeding video. As far as I'm concerned, you owe us a couple videos showing linda munching down on some roaches.

    Thanks for letting me experience being close to these, I'm very allergic to even regular little common centipedes, so have a bit of a fear about hospital trips about centipedes, but these are very beautiful!

    Could you make a care and husbandry video for your centipedes? I'd love to own one but I'm not sure what substrate and things I should use..
