. Needs a larger feeding space, I recommend a box, and a flat shelter, which I also recommend, and a taller water basin.

Raised food

Mainly choose Tenebrio molitor as feed, or feed freshly cooked fish every 15-20 days (cooked, smashed and sprinkled in a thin layer on the plate), freshly cooked loach is better. Young centipedes that are more than 40 days old can eat boiled egg yolks. They must be fresh once a day. Young centipedes can be separated from their mothers after 50 days. - Feeding methods. The red dragon centipede was fed from 5 to 6 pm every day during the active period, once a day (about 1.5 kilograms per 800 in 30 days). First, dry the washed tableware and drinking utensils without leaving water droplets, and place them in the centipede pool to ensure that each centipede can be approached and eaten. At this time, evenly throw mealworms (or fish ), add cold boiled water to the drinking tray, and do not spray water indoors before feeding. Feed the fish on time every day, do not feed the fish too much, and stop in moderation to avoid excessive food, indigestion, and food poisoning. Drinking water should choose a flat, shallow plate (about 1-1.5 cm deep), and drink fresh cold boiled water once a day. Indoor hygiene should be maintained to prevent flies from appearing. The room temperature is usually kept at 20-25 ℃. Warm up in winter. Pay attention to observe the centipede to see if there is any mental abnormality. Prevention and control of pests and diseases

Black spot disease: Black spots of different sizes were found on the underside and head of the red dragon centipede. You can use 0.6 grams of raw food, 0.25 grams of oxytetracycline, and 0.25 grams of chloramphenicol. They can be ground and mixed with feed insects for 7 days to prevent and control them. For severe cases, they can be fed separately. Emulsifiers such as nystatin, amphotericin, cycloheximide and clarithromycin can also be used for control. Gastroenteritis: 0.5 g of sulfa tablets mixed with feed worms, or 0.25 g of chloramphenicol mixed with 300 g of feed worms. Shelling disease: The centipede grows fast. When the humidity is too dry, it is difficult to shell. Too wet produces small mites and fungi parasites. At this time, 0.5 g of oxytetracycline, 0.6 g of mother-fed food, and 1 calcium tablet should be fed every 10 consecutive days, ground together, and mixed with 400 g of feeding insects.
