Description

Caret Down

Great beginner isopod.  P. laevis "Dairy Cow" is a crowd-favorite isopod, and one of the isopods we recommend for beginners.  They are a larger white isopod with black speckles.  Laevis Dairy Cows are very active, easy to keep, and reproduce quickly.  They are heavy-duty cleaning isopods who LOVE protein.  Dairy Cows are provided cuttlebone for calcium, and they eagerly consume veggie scraps, fish food flakes, and dried fish/shrimp.   Dairy Cow isopods are kept the same as other common isopods.  Please see our blog and YouTube channel for care information.

*Gizmo our cat made a small guest appearance on the video!  😆

*DOES NOT SHIP TO LOUISIANA

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:  Tolerates humid and arid environments
