Common name - Armadillo Isopod
Scientific name - Armadillo tuberculatus

The listing is for 1x animal, of a very interesting species of isopod (rolypoly/pillbug/woodlice) that is well known for its unique morphology. Juveniles start out with many cute little spikes which gradually reduces as they mature, resulting in bumpy textures by the time they reach adulthood.

These are CAPTIVE BRED in my collection, with this stock originating from Greece, Europe. When a group is purchased, the isopods sent will be an assorted mixture of ages and sizes, to ensure a good start to a breeding colony.

The isopods feed on a variety of forest materials such as decaying wood and leaf litter. Additional supplements such as calcium (limestone/cuttlefish bone) and fish food should be offered as part of their balanced diet.
