Advert Description

Zebra Isopods (Armadillidium maculatum)
£1.50 each, pick as many as you want.
Great as pets on their own or as a posh clean up crew in bio active set ups.
Really pretty isopod.

Beginner-friendly species of isopod (rolypoly/pillbug/woodlice) that are hardy and quick to reproduce. This species is well-known for their contrasting black and white banding. They are also one of the best beginner isopod species that are tolerant of a wider variety of conditions.

This species is also notoriously bolder and more active compared to typical isopods, making them ideal for display set-ups or ideal for those that just like to see their isopods out and about more often.

These are CAPTIVE BRED in my collection, the photos shown are my own pics. When a group is purchased, the isopods sent will be an assorted mixture of ages and sizes, to ensure a good start to a breeding colony.
The isopods feed on a variety of forest materials such as decaying wood and leaf litter. Additional supplements such as calcium (limestone/cuttlefish bone) and fish food should be offered as part of their balanced diet.
Available to collect from my home.

Preloved Safety Advice:

  • Important: Before responding to any pet ad, be sure to read our Pet Buying Checklist and download your copy for free.
  • Photos: Photos on ads can be misleading. Sellers may temporarily group animals in confined spaces, purely to get a photo. These images don't represent an animal's natural habitat. Always visit the pet in their current home so you can see their housing for yourself.
  • Research: Always learn everything you can about a species before contacting a seller. This will give you a better idea of what to expect when you go to visit a seller, what questions to ask, and what else you might need to buy.
  • Payments: Always use a safe payment method that offers you some protection, such as PayPal or Credit Card.
  • Reporting Concerns: If you've seen an ad on Preloved the breaches our welfare listing guidelines, you can click on 'Report Advert' just below the ad and we'll investigate your concerns.
