This Is Important
Millipedes require calcium for their exoskeletons. This is a must if you want your millipede to have a long healthy life. Without calcium their exoskeletons cannot develop properly.
We sell Respashy SuperCAL MeD Micro-Fine Calcium Supplement. This is one of the best calcium supplements on the market.
There is no shipping charge on the calcium and you can add it to your millipede order.
