Though babies of this Porcellio scaber morph start mostly white, they very quickly start to develop black patches and speckles.
We've been removing those with minimal patterning for a few years now and the result have been great!
Hardy and quick to establish, they're an excellent beginner species.. they're also great cleaners for terrariums with reptiles or a large amount of waste and/or detritus.
They will tolerate a decent range of conditions, but moist areas should always be provided.
We keep our 1/4 to 1/3 of our colony's bin damp with a generous amount of sphagnum moss.
They will eat just about anything and make great clean-up crew members, but we don't recommend this species be kept with molting invertebrates they could injure.
