Lottery Mix Scaber Isopods for Sale (Porcellio scaber)

The only lottery where every ticket wins.

Lottery Mix is a mix of Porcellio scaber color morphs from our colonies, so you never know exactly which colors you'll get. This timid species has proved to be a good clean-up crew, they breed fast, and like all scabers, they need regular protein.

Origin: Europe.

HPI Preferred Habitat Targets: 65–75°F; supporting relative humidity around 50–70%; keep roughly one-third to one-half of the enclosure damp with a moist sphagnum retreat and allow the rest to remain progressively drier. Provide moderate-to-strong ventilation and avoid keeping the full enclosure wet. Recommended substrate depth 2-3".

Recommended use: Bearded Dragon enclosures, Bone Cleaning (skulls), feeders (for larger animals).

Diet: As with most isopod species, their main diet should be lots of leaf litter, decaying wood and a calcium supply. This species will readily cannibalize each other if there is not enough protein in their diet (feed protein 2x per week). Supplement with mushrooms, freeze dried veggies, organic veggie scraps.

Reproduction: Fast (Brood size ~10-20)

Perfect For: Bearded dragon keepers, bone cleaning, feeder colonies, and anyone who loves a surprise.

Ordering: Priced per isopod, with a minimum of 3 per species. Starting a new colony? We recommend 6–20 (see How Many Isopods Should I Get?). Bulk discounts apply automatically.

Restrictions: Due to state permitting requirements, we are not allowed to ship these isopods to Louisiana.

Additional Information

  • Isopods are captive bred.
  • Do not release them into the wild (per USDA APHIS)
  • Isopods will be various sizes.

Many isopod distributors offer starter cultures of specific counts (5, 6, 8, 10 counts, etc.). We have found that some clients want 1 isopod while others prefer 20+. We have made the decision to sell isopods on a per price basis to assist with your custom-built starter cultures.

Isopod listings are priced for 1 isopod.

Tiered Discounts are unlocked as you add more.
