PORCELLIO HOFFMANSEGGI

PORCELLIO HOFFMANNSEGGI

Hoffmannseggi are a large spanish Isopod that should be housed in a container with 75% of the bedding kept dry and about 25% of the bedding kept damp so that they can access moisture when they need it.  Place dry tree bark and branches in the container so that they can climb and hide.  The babies like to hide.

They love fish food flakes and bee pollen and sometimes carrots.

They need good airflow and should not be crowded.  Overcrowding will stop them from breeding and may even result in cannibalism.

Hoffmannseggi will grow to about 1.5 inches in length and about half an inch in width.  We have two phases in our collection.  We have the dark grey and the brown as you can see in the pictures.
