New Additions To Our Isopod Collection

We are happy to announce three new additions to our isopod collection.  We recently acquired groups of  Porcellio Magnificus, Porcellio Hoffmanseggi and Porcellio Ornatus “Dark South”.

All three Porcellio species are from Spain and prefer enclosures with airflow and kept on the drier side.  We have tried to mimic the dry Spanish forest floor in order to keep them happy.  The addition of Rosemary leaves seems to have perked them up a bit and they love goldfish flakes and Alfalfa grass.  We also keep them on a continuous diet of Pecan and Sugar Maple leaves.
