Keeping report Isopods
Porcellio laevis “Milkback”
Written by
on
| Origin | Cosmopolitan |
| Temperature | 18-26 °C |
| Size | up to 2.3 cm |
Behavior:
Porcellio laevis “Milkback” is a diurnal species and is therefore a perfect guest for anyone who would like to study the behavior of the animals. As a rule, they can always be found and move lively through the Isopod tank. I feed Porcellio laevis “Milkback” twice a week with Isopod food and it is always a spectacle when all the Isopods greedily pounce on it. Sometimes the Isopods even carry the food into their hiding place to nibble on it in peace.
Breeding:
The Isopods do not have to be fully grown to have offspring. Porcellio laevis “Milkback” is a very prolific species and you will have your own offspring relatively quickly. The development time is approx. 7-8 months.

Special features:
We have succeeded in breeding a stable color strain of “milkbacks” from the Porcellio laevis “black”. There are different color variants such as Porcellio laevis “orange”, Porcellio laevis “panda”, Porcellio laevis “white” or Porcellio laevis “black”, but all color morphs are perfect beginner animals due to their daytime activity and relatively undemanding keeping conditions and their stately size.
Tip: They can cope with very high humidity, so they are also suitable for humid terrariums such as snail tanks.
