Description

Wild Type Roly-Poly Isopods (Armadillidium vulgare), also known as pill bugs, are docile and easy-to-keep isopods suitable for bioactive vivariums and terrariums. While not the most voracious cleaners, they are a charming and beginner-friendly species that can tolerate some dry conditions as long as they have a damp retreat area, such as a bug den, available in their habitat. They reproduce more slowly than other species, making them a great fit for terrariums where population control matters. We provide cuttlebone and supplemental feed fish flakes, dried shrimp, dried fish, zucchini, and squash.

Best for: Bioactive terrariums, beginner isopod keepers, setups where slower reproduction is preferred

Sold as 10 isopods. For care guides and tips, visit our blog and YouTube channel.

Please see shipping details for shipping cost information and live arrival guarantee.

Isopods will be shipped in a container of organic peat moss, sphagnum moss, and organic leaf litter.

A thick layer of leaf litter at all times is the key to a thriving isopod colony.

Skill level: Beginner isopod

Humidity: Prefers humid environments

Breeding: Slow breeder that breeds easily
