Orin's Calico, (not sex-linked)
Originally by Orin Mcmonigle, this gorgeous Porcellio scaber morph is not sex-linked, which means this beautiful colouration shows up in both males and females!
Quick moving, surface dwelling, & medium-sized.
Like other Porcellio scaber morphs, Orin's Calico can breed heavily once established, though we have found them to be a little slower to establish.
As a surface-dwelling species, who doesn't do much burrowing or need more than a few inches of substrate, they'll greatly appreciate cork pieces/ground litter to cling to, and plenty of leaf litter to hide under.. they also go through a fair amount of calcium.
In our experience, Orin's calico can be prolific, but (unlike our other scaber morphs) they seem to be a lot less likely to over-breed.
