Can Powder Orange isopods mate successfully with Dairy Cows? I think I have a hybrid baby.

They can with Oreo crumble, they are the same species. So are powder blue. Not sure about dairy cow but I've never heard of that.

Just some orange juice in the milk... they'll be orange in a couple generations :rofl: Porcellio laevis comes in a few colors, orange being one, mine did the same thing. you have to keep selecting to keep them true as I understand, I'm too lazy for all that, so I have OJ cows. I'm a year and a half into mine though, if that's the only one, just feed it to a spider, problem solved. See an orange one, feed it to a spider...

I've had this too! I think the species is Porcellionides pruinosus? Powder blue, powder orange, and oreo crumble are all this species (at least, these are the common names for them where I live).

The hybrid babies I find don't look as cool as yours though; they mostly just look grey, like the wild type ones.

Maybe call it "pilk" (pepsi milk)
