Millipede life cycle stages. (IMAGE)
Caption
When millipedes first hatch, they have only three pairs of legs. They then go through about eight life cycle stages, with periods of molting, resting and growth. By the time they are adults, they usually have somewhere between 40 to 400 legs, but the longest found so far (deep underground in Australia) had an impressive 1,306.
