Product Description

The Dairy Cow is a large, attractive black and white species of isopod that enjoy a warm and humid environment. These guys make a great addition to your bio-active set up.

Isopods commonly used as housing unit custodians or ‘clean-up crew’ and live and breed well in bio-active set- ups. They are also useful as a live food for many reptiles and amphibians and have the advantage of a high calcium content due to their calcarious exo-skeleton.

If they are to be used as food, they are best served up in a smooth-sided dish in much the same way as mealworms or calci- worms. To thrive and become established in the housing unit, they need to be in a constantly damp and humid microclimate which normally means that they hide away for much of the time under branches, rocks, humid/moss hide, or within the substrate.
