The nestpede split from its ancestor and evolved a rather different way of living compared to its ancestor. The feelers are still the same but they have evolved a second set of front legs as they need this to climb, the new pair of legs evolved from the backlegs earlier used for making noise to attract a mate, thus there are only two pairs left for this purpose. They also devolved in size. Their tail have evolved into something that may look like a stinger but it is in fact used to burrow into the non sticky-flora on the island. Their body has evolved alot of new joints to make this possible. They do this because of the fact that four sexes makes it harder to attract a mate and so the eggs they lay need to survive, so they lay them in nests in the burrowed holes. As the eggs still are frog-like and need water they need to make their nest moist to ensure the eggs survival. They (like their ancestor and relatives) have a special saliva that counteract the stickyness from the stickyballs, they will eat themselfs full on stickyballs and head back to their nests and regurgiting them there aswell as water and small sticks or leaves from the wig tower to have enough in the nest to ensure it stays moist for the time it takes the eggs to hatch, with the stickyballs in the nest the young ones also have something to feed on. The nestpede will sleep in the non sticky-flora, favoring this as it is safer. They are exactly like their ancestor apart from these facts.
