This listing is the ten-count lot of the same wild-caught adults Big Z's sells one at a time. Ten is the number that makes a communal desert setup look like the real thing, and it is the sensible way to stock a large arid build or start a serious group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGentle and easy to work with, so handle slowly and never grip; like most millipedes it can seep a mild defensive fluid that stains, so wash your hands after. The catch is that this is a desert animal, not a tropical one, and that trips up new keepers. Ten animals need real floor space, strong cross-ventilation, mostly dry substrate topped with hardwood leaf litter, and just one lightly damp corner, because too-wet substrate and stale air are the number-one killers. Spice Level 3: Intermediate, and a ten-count lot is a commitment to getting the dry side right. Check Big Z's current live-arrival and weather policy before ordering, and read the care guide for the full build.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Big Z's Habitats and Arachnids","offers":[{"title":"10 Count - 4-6\" (Adult WC)","offer_id":52848656843069,"sku":"BZ-MILL-OORNATUS-TXGOLD-ADT-WC-10CT","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7755\/4493\/files\/bz-lot10-texas-gold-v2.jpg?v=1788801042","url":"https:\/\/www.bigzs.shop\/products\/texas-gold-millipede-orthoporus-ornatus-10-count-lot","provider":"Big Z's Habitats and Arachnids","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
