Centipede

if you mix it with sand use river sand, look best with coco peat. No water dish needed, they will get moisture from the substrate. Pics would be good, i can try and id it from pics but not guarantee's

Sure, provided it survives its trip with Australia Post (it's in a urine sample jar with shredded newspper, slightly dampened) I'll post some pics up here whenever it arrives.

i went out the bush the other day i was looking for tiger snakes but every log i over turned there was a centipede under them. big fat ones . so now i know where to go if i ever wanted to keep them.

I wish we had that here! I can never seem to find ANY

I'm sure you would, they are common almost everywhere.

"brownish body with a purple sheen, yellow belly and blue legs, head a bit darker than the body"

That's the description of the beastie. Any ideas?
