Armadillidium Nasatum Peach Isopods, also known as Nosy Roly Poly, are color morphs of normal Armadillidium Nasatum which originally came from Europe.
They look a great deal like Armadillidium Vulgare, but they are more sleek and smaller. They also have a bump in the front of their anterior between their antennae. They do roll up into a protective ball when disturbed, just like regular common roly poly’s.
Nosy Roly Poly Isopods are very easy to care for. Please see our video and care info below.
Housing: Any container
Food Preferences: Vegetables, dried leaves, grasses, decaying matter and rabbit poop.
Temp Requirements: 65 Degrees up to about 85 Degrees. The cold and extreme heat can kill Armadillidium Nasatum
Breeding: They will breed readily if cared for properly. They will begin breeding before reaching full size
Substrate: leaf mold, coconut coir or peat moss substrate slightly damp.
Difficulty Rating: Easy
Size: .65 inches.
Humidity: slightly humid
My friend, Dr. Aaron Dossey, started Invertebrate Studies Institute. This is a really interesting concept that deserves further investigation and implementation.
The basic concept is to create a learning environment to introduce the public to invertebrate ecology and study, while also creating a facility that could host investigation and scientific study of invertebrates for a host of applications from medicinal uses to uses in food ingredients, and for a greater overall understanding.
The public portion would hose an invertebrate zoo while the scientific portion would host a world class scientific lab that could be used by government, university and business scientists alike.
Please check out their Facebook page and let Dr. Dossey know that we sent you. https://www.facebook.com/notes/invertebrate-studies-institute/invertebrate-studies-institute-mission-and-vision/601522430033230/

Imagine growing your own fish for food and then circulating and filtering the fish water through media and growing garden plants in that media to produce some of the biggest, best looking and best tasting food available for Human consumption. Not only is the food and fish you will grow safe, they are also highly nutritious. I have two aquaponics systems here at Worm Man’s Worm Farm. The first is for our Tilapia and the second is Koi. We do not eat the Koi, but we do eat the vegetables that the Koi help us feed.

Armadillidium Vulgare- Rollie Pollie Isopods
This is a short care video about Armadillidium Vulgare, also known as the common Rollie Pollie. More Care information can also be found at: http://wormman.blog/armadillidium-vulgare-rollie-pollies/
Posted by Invertebrate Network on Saturday, December 16, 2017
Armadillidium vulgare, also known as the “Pill Bug” and “Rollie Pollie” is a common isopod that rolls into a protective ball when disturbed.
The can get to be almost 3/4 of an inch long. Vulgare is very interesting in that it can tolerate drier conditions and also is known to Sun themselves on cold days. I have caught our Rollie Pollies sunning themselves in our greenhouse on cold days. On hotter days they will hide under rocks and debris.
Rollie Pollies will eat decaying vegetation and have also been known to be found eating rabbit droppings. At least I have caught them hanging out in rabbit droppings. I am guessing that they were eating them.
Rollie Pollies were introduced into the U.S. from Europe and can pretty much be found everywhere. They enter a state of dormancy in winter in order to survive the cold.

Okay, We are all in school again and I am going to condescendingly ask you some questions. What is deposited under a chicken coop kids? What can we do with what is deposited under chicken coops?
Well, Kids, beneath chicken coops are chicken poops (Sorry). Chicken manure is great feeding to a variety of invertebrates from composting worms to Soldier Fly Larvae. The former needs for the manure to be aged and the latter will lay their eggs in the fresh stuff. The Black Solider Fly Larvae will eat the manure fresh and they will do a great job of eating it all. Those grubs, which we trademarked under the name Soldier Grubs, are great for reptiles, fish and chickens. You can make chicken food out of chicken poop. How great is that?
Anyway, in order to gather chicken poop for your worms, or for composting, you need to have the chickens pretty much confined to one area. Free range is great, but free range in a cage, where animals can’t kill your chickens, and so you can get the poop is even better.
If you’re reading this, you probably already are very aware of the benefits of owning and maintaining your own chickens. You’ve probably already known that the average chicken lays over 260 eggs a year, and that can lead to over FIVE THOUSAND eggs for your family per year.
You already know the positives. Knowing all that, maybe what has stopped you in the past was worrying about the cost of buying a chicken coop, or the complication of how to build a chicken coop, such as coop materials, insulation, lighting, ventilation, nesting boxes, perches and predators protection and perhaps the upkeep for the chickens themselves.
