Guess instead of scattering the pictures around the place I'll just make a thread only for them, especially since my interest in these little guys grew so much
All are wild caught so far, from the woods, our garden, and my grandmas garden (just the calicos).
Oniscus asellus. This particular one was named Atlas, it was the biggest one I ever had, had him for a good while too. He has since passed away, RIP big guy.
Atlas' large butt showing when he's tried to hide. Gives you a good size comparison with the others around. Edit: And to the left there's my P. scaber calico, Poppy
Armadillidium vulgare, the females tend to be more brownish.
Baby isopod under my microscope, lifting its head up.
O. asellus in grey and...what do you call that colour? Light brown? Creme? Beige?
Another one. I'm trying to separate this morph!
A. vulgare up close
A rather big Porcellio scaber calico named Poppy, she's one of my favourites due to her gorgeous pattern. Trying to breed more with her in hopes the babies will come out just as gorgeous
Calico babies up close, 1-2mm small but already showing the pattern.
