Thyropygus sp. "Ember" - Spice 3: Intermediate. Baby Buddy or Burrow Buddy: fits small animals or groups, not a fixed stocking number.; Deep custom enclosure: use once size, group or food needs outgrow a Buddy.
Thyropygus sp. "Ember"
Identity confidence: provisional. This is a genus, group, or trade name rather than a confirmed species. Treat it as the closest match we can stand behind, and use the more conservative end of any range.
Big Z's Quick Verdict: Give Ember millipedes deep, edible substrate and plenty of decomposed leaves. Keep buried areas damp and undisturbed. The species behind the Ember name isn't confirmed, so care follows other Thyropygus and general millipede husbandry.
