No, millipedes will not eat crickets. Millipedes eat soft fruits and vegetables. I feed mine cucumber. It's also a good idea to sprinkle a little vitamin powder over their food.

i dont know if all millipedes are different, but i have an african giant black and i keep him in a tank with my rhacodactylus ciliatus and he eats the calcium/multivitamin supplamented fruit mash i offer them, and then i also put in dusted greens. SUPPOSEDLY, they eat rhacodactylus poo too, but ive never witnessed that either, however, i dont usually notice much poo around the tank either. i dont think they can eat live crickets, ive never seen mine eat crickets. he does however, drink from the water bowl, use the basking, and burrow under the substrate. I think if you google millipede carsheets, you can find information about what they eat.
