Armadillidium Gestroi Isopods
Amazing arrived safely and started eating straight away will definitely be buying more from the bug room
I ordered these and five other tubs of Armadillidium and Porcellio species. All tubs contained significantly more than I ordered, all were healthy with a mix of sizes and delivery was very quick once dispatched. The price was also very competitive. I'll definitely be ordering again in the future 10/10
Armadillidium Gestroi Isopods
Often overlooked Armadillidium species. Large sized species that are quite prolific with beautiful bold colouring.
Armadillidium Gestroi Isopods do well at average UK room temperatures (around 20°C). They enjoy a nice moisture gradient, general guidance would be to keep 1/3 of the enclosure moist. They enjoy a variety of foods such as washed and peeled vegetable scraps, though the stable of their diet should be leaf litter and rotten hardwoods. Ensure they have access to a good source of calcium, we would recommend either cuttlebone, eggshells or oyster shells.
Armadillidium Gestroi Isopods are a great species for both beginners and experienced keepers, they breed very well in captivity.
Please note: All isopods are captive bred by us here at The Bug Room. We will always send a mix of sizes to maximise the success of your colony.
