The listing is for 1x animal, of a beginner-friendly species of isopod (rolypoly/pillbug/woodlice) that is hardy and quick to reproduce. This species is well-known for the yellow & white spots that paint over its black body.

This is a special pedigree called "Orange", which has been selectively bred for a mutation that reduces the level of the isopod's body pigments. This results in a bright orange body that is dotted with yellow and white spots.

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.
