Randy found this really gross millipede in the yard today.
Or maybe it's a centipede?
It was almost pretty.
I looked for it online to identify it, but couldn't find it.
I named it Emma. A girl's name for a pink bug.
After photos were taken of Emma, she was returned to the yard from where she came.
Any ideas on what kind of bug Emma is?

A bug with a lot of legs!!!! :)
I am glad she lives in your yard. :)
Cute name, for a not so cute bug. Ugh.
I think I might have surprised my chickens with a treat that has a lot of legs! LOL
Hahahahahhaha. Hahahahahaaaaaaa! Emma huh? Rahahahaaaaaa. Sorry I can't stop laughing. :) I love it!!
Name that bug? Gross that's what! You should have fed her to the chickens!!
CeeCee - Thank you so much for identifying Emma!!! That proves it's a millipede common to this area. It's an Apheloria virginiensis. I should have known!
Cindy - I thought it was pretty neat how it's legs all moved in unison. It was neat to see it walking.
Farm Girl - I don't like bugs, really. If it was a spider, it would be dead.
Hi Sue!! At least Emma was pink, she could have been uglier!
Julie - Yeah, we were going to give Emma to the chickens, but I named her and all, it would be sad to kill her after that!
Robin - You know how I name things!!! I still find George legs every once in a while in the house...
Barb - TOMORROW!!!!! I can't wait for the big move!
