Scolopendra “Red Leg” – For experienced keepers<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Scolopendra dehaani “Red Leg”<\/span><\/strong> immediately impresses with its strong contrast. The body shows a <\/span>dark brown to almost black coloration<\/span>while the legs are <\/span>intensely red<\/span> appear intensely red.<\/span><\/p>\n

This creates a very eye-catching appearance that is clearly different from other varieties. The red leg color is bold and makes for a real eye-catcher in the terrarium. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Behavior and activity<\/span><\/h3>\n

This species is <\/span>very agile and attentive<\/span>while she actively explores her surroundings. At the same time, it is a <\/span>distinctive hunter<\/span>that deliberately overpowers its prey.<\/span><\/p>\n

The animals react quickly, which is precisely why observing them remains particularly exciting. They become particularly active in the evening hours and go in search of food. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Attitude and climate<\/span><\/h3>\n

For successful keeping, you should keep the <\/span>humidity constantly at 70-80<\/span> hold. At the same time, the substrate must never be permanently wet, as this can quickly lead to problems.<\/span><\/p>\n

A slightly moist but well-aerated substrate ensures stable conditions. In addition <\/span>Sea almond leaves<\/span> as they have an anti-fungal effect and support the climate.<\/span><\/p>\n

A sufficiently high box with a height of at least <\/span>30 cm high<\/span> is important. At the same time, you need a <\/span>tightly closing lid<\/span>so that the animal is safely housed.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Important points on posture<\/span><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • \n

    Humidity at <\/span>70-80 %<\/span> keep<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Substrate <\/span>slightly moist, but never wet<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Sea almond leaves<\/span> use as a top layer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    At least <\/span>30 cm high, secure box<\/span> use<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Break-out-proof lid is mandatory<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    <\/h3>\n

    Feeding<\/span><\/h3>\n

    Scolopendra dehaani “Red Leg”<\/span><\/strong> is not picky and reliably accepts a wide variety of food animals. It can also cope with prey that appears larger than itself. <\/span><\/p>\n

    They have proven themselves:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      Crickets<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Locusts<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Cockroaches<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      You should remove uneaten food animals after about a day, as the animal is sensitive during moulting.<\/span><\/p>\n

      <\/h3>\n

      Handling and responsibility<\/span><\/h3>\n

      When handling this species <\/span>caution is crucial<\/span>because it is a venomous animal. A bite causes severe pain, even if it is not life-threatening for healthy adults. <\/span><\/p>\n

      You should therefore always work in a calm and controlled manner and avoid direct contact. However, the right attitude and respect for the animal will create a safe environment. <\/span><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Conclusion<\/span><\/h3>\n

      Scolopendra dehaani “Red Leg”<\/span><\/strong> is a fascinating centipede with a strong appearance and exciting behavior. Its activity, hunting style and striking coloration make it one of the most impressive species in the terrarium hobby. <\/span><\/p>\n
