Meet Porcellio scaber, commonly called sowbugs or rough woodlice. This pack contains 10 live, farm-raised isopods. We raise and use this species in our own lab, and it can support hands-on observation in biology classrooms, independent study, and suitable bioactive enclosures.
Possible investigations include observing shelter use and moisture preference, comparing activity in a choice chamber with different light levels and a shaded refuge, or tracking population changes over time. Keep conditions appropriate for the species and provide cover; isopods naturally shelter under leaves, bark, and substrate.
Pack contents: 10 live P. scaber. Habitat, substrate, food, and accessories are sold separately unless included in a kit listing. These isopods are also kept as cleanup crew or used as feeders when appropriate.
The count is the number of animals in this pack. Live animals may vary in size and coloration.
