Which species of millipedes have been bred in captivity?

So I am intrigued. I have noticed while isopod hunting, that you can find multiple species under the same rock, wood etc. Last night while checking my termite locations, I lifted up a piece of 1x2 and found 1 A. vulgare, 1 A. nasatum and 1 P. scaber. Which I guess makes since considering they...

Are there any good sites out there with good isopod info?

My brother lives in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. He sent me this lovely pic. Neostylopyga rhombifolia?

I love these. Anyone raise them?

My collection today yielded these two in a creek bed under a rock. Orange!!! I assume this is not too common in the wild?

I found this lone orangey- brown mottled guy under a rock.

Porcellionides pruinosus?

Found in a bone dry barn dirt floor under a bone dry board with brown recluse spiders 

I have collected some isopods from back yard here in Kentucky. I assume they are from the Armadillidium genus. Is wilted kale an good food source? I throw away a lot of it from my bearded dragons tank. 

Isopods would be good because I could just allow them to "free range" in the vivarium. Maybe my answer is not one stable feeder but multiple? Below is a shot of my vivarium. It has been going for about a month. It is an African Savannah set up. Not all the plants are African though. Throughout...

So how do you guys go about collecting tiny nymphs from your bins, such as little Kenyans? I am still thinking about getting them to use as feeders for my rubber frogs. 

So I picked up this nice 3 gallon "bugarium" from PetSmart today. I want to a roach species that produces small/tiny non climbing nymphs at least. So help think through some ideas. Paratemnopteryx coulianna is at the top of my list. I would expect the adults to hang out on the bark and fake...

So I just got 6 Phrynomantis microps "West African Rubber Frogs". These frogs eat mostly ants in the wild. I currently have them a selection of very young nymph dubia and pantanal for them in the feed dish. They have eaten a few of the smallest ones. So I am looking for a suggestion of a roach...

So I have two species of frogs that are not bold feeders. I feed them dubia and eublaberus serranus nymphs. Currently I am just using shallow plastic gladware. I would like to find something more natural looking to use in my vivarium. Deep enough to keep the roaches in yet shallow enough to let...

I was curious if any could give me some info on these? How active, shy are they? How are they generally kept? Thanks.
