Purple Rainbow Ivory Millipede (Chicobolus spinigerus) - 2-4" (Mixed Sizes WC)

A common millipede with an uncommon secret: catch the light right and it burns violet Chicobolus spinigerus, the Florida Ivory Millipede, is a US native you have probably walked past a hundred times. This is the one you have not: the "Purple Rainbow" color form, where the dark bands throw a purple-violet iridescence the second light rakes across them. Same hardy, easygoing species you already trust, wearing a genuinely uncommon look. Underneath the shimmer it is still a slow, gentle composter that turns oak leaf litter and rotting hardwood into both home and dinner.
