Isopoda Vitae

04/24/2018

Just wanted to post a quick update to our friends! Our isopod lady is currently pregnant and suffering from a rare disorder that makes her extremely sick. Because of this things will be moving slower than anticipated but we do hope to list some Isopods available for purchase/shipping in the next few weeks. Thank you for your patience!

After years of watching these little grey bugs roll into tiny balls, it turns out everything is a lie: roly polies aren't bugs at all.

We've had a recent increase in likes to our page so we wanted to say hello! We are still here and while we may be a little quiet over the winter months our isopods are breeding, growing and will be ready for shipping once we have some warmer temps! Stay tuned!

I guess bell pepper was a hit tonight in the crab tank, with the Isopods at least!

Armadillidium Vulgare
Common Pillbug

The Armadillidium Vulgare is also known as the common pillbug and one of the more common isopods. The A. Vulgare are what most would typically think of when they think of a pillbug or roly poly. They do often have some coloring on their back when they are older but can also vary in color. They will roll up into a ball like one expects of a roly poly. They make a great clean up crew and are fun to watch as a pet too!

Cost: coming soon!
Shipping: $6.
