Slime still alive, has taken yeast pellets. Often moves away from food for no apparent reason.
Millipedes still overpopulating. I have thought up some tactics to encourage Original Adult (it still seems to be alive) to lay its eggs on the surface. By the way, for the record I am well aware that its life doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things and that arthropods are possibly all unconscious anyways, but I shall nevertheless attempt to commit ethics at it for some reason.
Anyways, the juveniles grow quite rapidly. Here is the exterior of an egg nest and a nearly adult juvenile:
All juveniles I have are white. It seems very likely they do not become visibly colored until shortly after (or during the premolt/molt to) adulthood. So far it appears that none of the immatures have reached full size yet.
If you find any males as they mature, please let me know so the family and genus can be pinned down. Many thanks, robert.mesibov@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteWill do, although given the source population I suspect my culture may be composed entirely of clonal females.
