ISOPOD COLLECTION TOUR 2021 | FEEDING & WATERING (34 TYPES)

[@mrx3430]

wow! thankyou ! Isopods ! ( what else do you need in life ? ) Isopods are my favorite animals!!! my favorite ones are armadillo officinalis Greece , local lads , dairy cows, powder blues and the best ones - porcellio werneri . the trilobites ) when I first got my isopods ( from the outside off course ) I could not help looking in to the colony and moving stuff to see them , knowing they would do better if I would not ... but its this black hole of isopod keeping witch keeps you in... question ! should I split the isopod culture if there are like hundreds of'em ? my first ever shoutout in any video !!! thank you very much ! ❤❤❤

[@Reptiliatus]

Well hello there! I’m very happy to hear you enjoyed the video! It definitely helps to split very large cultures up 👍🏼. It was my pleasure! I really appreciate your support and viewership so it was the least I could do! Take care!

[@oud13yearsago83]

Why do you like isopods so much? They’re very boring in my opinion.

[@mrx3430]

@@oud13yearsago83 isopods are awesome. If you don't like them first glance, there is not a lot of ways to convince you... But I got interested in isopods, from a feeding video from Dayyan, and then I fell in to this black hole - if you get in there is no way out... Now I have a few of my own isopods all thanks to Dayyan ☺️

[@oud13yearsago83]

@@mrx3430 Lol I’m much more interested in keeping arachnids and insects. I have a tailless whip scorpion right now, I was thinking about getting springtails for his enclosure, they’re somewhat isopods no? Lol.

[@mrx3430]

@@oud13yearsago83 springtails eat mold, and isopods eat detritus . tailless whip scorpion = vinegaroon ?

[@Reptiliatus]

Phew! Believe me when I say this video took hours to film and edit (as the isopod tours always do)! Hope you all enjoy the first isopod tour of 2021! Make sure to watch till the end for the question of the day! Don't forget I always have leave a list of isopod species featured in the video description in order of appearance so that you know what everything is and how to spell each species latin names! I accidentally forgot to create a label for Porcellio hoffmannseggi which appears in the video at 36:37. Thanks for watching!

[@kian_theg5967]

Oh sorry I didn‘t knew that but I like youre videos and that is a good explaination. I really love youre Gecko videos and I am about to get one and I am pretty excited. I‘m really sorry cause I like Isopods and its kinda annoying when there are so much of em. I love youre channel and subscribed and gave 3/4 of youre vids a thumbs up so I just was in rage. sorry :)

[@BigRedsIsopods]

Hey do you have any suggestions on a good place to buy isopods in Ontario?

[@lahermosalagartija4772]

nmms hay un chingo de esos en mi patio jajajaja🤣 soy de México son muchos y se les conocen como cochinillas en mi país, y tal vez en E.U.A se le conozcan como insecto armadillo, nmms there's a little of those in my yard hahaha I'm from Mexico are many and they are known as piglets in my country, and maybe in the U.S. they are known as armadillo insect.

[@TreverHaney]

My son., now 21, used to collect isopods from our Western Washington yard (constantly move objects to procure them, objects dad daily felt it necessary to reorient to their designated locations)..... And bring them in his room.... In his bed. One time my wife went to wake him and she found hundreds of them in his bed with him "because they were his friends" and he liked the way it felt. I just now discovered isopod appreciation is a thing...

[@dl5857]

I don't know if this counts but my favorite isopod is the giant isopods that live at the bottom of the ocean they just look so cool it's like you can see the isopods details so clearly without a micro scope

[@Reptiliatus]

Of course it counts! They are crazy cool!

[@squeakatu1981]

When I was growing up my family called these wood lice. I really needed a video to enjoy my nan passed last night from rona and a lump on a lung also I have really bad toothache and really needed something to take my mind off things.

[@Reptiliatus]

Haha enjoy! Thanks for watching!

[@JagaimoNoTensai]

Awesome vid thank you. Looking to get into the hobby and been doing research for about 10months. This has been one of the best feeding vids to learn from I’ve watched yet. It was great to watch you feed them, how you feed them, talk about the different foods, see how much you feed them and all the other neat info along the way. Repetition is how we learn, I’m thankful for the full feed, not boring by any means 😮🤔💜

[@frankiejeanshirley7574]

Young man I’ve watched several of your videos today starting with the regal jumping spider! I am absolutely fascinated and you are perfect for them! You have such love for living things and you see the beauty in everything! I will be watching you and sharing your amazing videos!

[@aliwhite1872]

Dairy Cows!! Your channel got me started on keeping my own colony!! I hope to get a variety of isopods in the future, but always have had a love for cows, so deff had to start there!

[@MiikeSchnieke96]

Man, that was awesome. I could watch these for hours and hours. My favorite Pod species is really P. laevis dairy cow, since these were my first isopods when I started and they are still impressive. I can always see a few of them, they have a huge appetite, and the variety of pattern never gets boring!

[@IsopodDreams2022]

Dairy cows are awesome but my favorite are porcellio ornatus high yellow's

[@IrieRogue]

Just watched your last tour last night! Stoked to see this one 🥰

[@Reptiliatus]

Wonderful! Thanks for watching!

[@tinksmith4964]

Yesss isopods love fiah food. I give mine just normal flakes. I had 30 to start with and then before I knew it I had at LEAST a thousand. I had to split my colony up. Its actually so fun to watch their numbers increase - they spread like fire when they get going!

[@Magpie.Pixie.]

My favorite is magic potion! they're just so cute and not too difficult ❤

[@Reptiliatus]

They are amazing!

[@AllieBeau3]

The way you talk to them is so cute! I’ve been researching a lot to get myself a couple of cultures. Would love some more isopod videos! 🥰

[@themadaquarist]

Great isopod footage! If the show in Toronto is a go this year and they are bringing me in I’ll hook you up with a new group of Mags. My current favourite, like you I like most of them, would be the C.lemon Blues. In your video the ones I loved the best would be the P. scaber Calicos. Look forward to more videos on Isopods as always

[@Reptiliatus]

You are too kind! That would be wonderful! ☺️🙏🏼

[@doomboy0007]

i like how with almost every single one. you say its one of your favorites. i would suggest trying to get your hands on some lava isopods. i just got some in, they are so beautiful.

[@MzDragon-NY]

So far my favorite isopod video, I know this took huge time, but Thank you! Seeing the set up, the ones that really like more proteins, dryer vs more humid, all great info!

[@Reptiliatus]

Thank you!

[@the.madilorian]

so cool! love the close up shots!!

I just got some dwarf whites for clean-up crew but watching your video has peaked me interest for more! Especially the Albino Japan and Magic Potion 😀

This video literally brought me to this channel. I, too, love Isopods. They're so much fun! How can you not love their little leggies?

[@Reptiliatus]

Thanks so much and welcome!

[@michellekent1289]

I like the curly isopods, I love how they have the body type of a saber but can roll like an armadalidium but their aentena on the outside are the cutest things ever. I hope that what I have aren't all males

[@Alicia.Marie.13]

Love isopods!

[@Reptiliatus]

Me too!

[@yonasshinigami4956]

I looooove Isopods, I only have 3 different types and originally only got them as clean up crews, but now they are the heartbeat of my little ecosystem. They are so cute and interesting to watch, also they make the maintenance of the enclosures so easy, and are the best food for my sling tarantulas and scorpions, and they are great to handle. I love them and can't wait to get some more ^^

[@16Fishwrap16]

I have some Cubaris "Panda King" isopods and I really like them, they're very cute and finding them in my huge tank always cheers me up!

So, my favorite isopod species are the C. Murina and the P. Floria. They were my first ever isopods so this is why they are my favorites.

[@lunarminx]

I bought 40 powdered oranges last September and now have about a 1000. But they are with springtime and dwarf whites and purples. I just ordered 5 rubber duckies and will set them up with springtime only. I also mist with the water I use for my anoles, it has liquid calcium added. My bioactive is too full of too. I believe the calcium water is the reason for the explosion

[@pearlbarley4767]

I found some calicoes in my garden. how lucky :) thanks for the vid

[@Damoustache]

Love your stuff! I recently got a small starter colony of Armadillidium maculatum, (9 of them to be precise). Any advice or tips to get the colony to grow and establish? I have them set up like yours, and I've been offering sliced veggies and dried sardines. Thanks!

[@Reptiliatus]

Keep doing why you are doing! Have patience as the Armadillidium genus sometimes take longer to start reproducing. as long as things aren’t too moist everywhere and they do have a drier side accompanied by a nice moist area and a moss corner with good substrate and food all round, they should do great! How is the ventilation? You want to make sure there is some ventilation as well :).

As someone new to isopods I would have to say that my A. Vulgare wild types have always been my favorite since I was a kid. My current ones are living in a 5 gallon native terrarium I made for them. Them and their springtails have just exploded in population. My second favorite that I have has to be my P. sabre lotto mix that has also had a population boom. Loving all the color morphs they are throwing.

[@Reptiliatus]

Thank you for sharing! All great options!

I agree, A. vulgare is my favorite species!

Hey I have a question could isopods and springtails live in a snail terrarium? I want to make a bioactive snail terrarium for my two snails Kush and Gary and I was wondering if isopods and springtails would hurt them?

[@zko451]

I wouldn't. i tried- i thought it would be great. the isopods outcompeted the snails and chewed on their shells. i kept zebra pillbugs with them, but the population got SO big so fast that the snails were in rough shape by the time I realized and separated them :( they also eat the snail eggs

[@mnep5]

Great video good luck keeping those awesome animals! 😁

[@jenniferkenward9818]

Can you please answer this question many years ago I was showing my daughter (we called them wood louse ) I picked it up and lots of babies crawled all over my hand. Do the carry their young around?

[@Reptile_Gecko]

Have you ever looked into Rubber Ducky Isopods? (Cubaris sp. Rubber Ducky) I think they were found in Thailand round limestone caves, so they may have some unique care requirements, I just love how they look and cause they can be quite pricey (sometimes), I feel I'll probably end up keeping them as pets, instead of breeding for bioactive enclosures like I'll probably end up doing with a few species, (Some for tropical bios and some for arid bios) 😅 Just so I can see them more easily, instead of having some sort of other invert, reptiles or amphibian in there. Really love your videos, keep up the great work 👍 It's nice to actually have some good pettubers I can watch instead of having to avoid all the exotic pet videos out there, I can at least have some to watch 🤗

[@JaumeAgost]

Very nice video, hoping to se more soon :)

[@grettelguerra7511]

Hi Dayyan, I’m new to the isopod hobby and curious what size containers you use for your established colonies. Right now I’m only keeping two species of 10 individuals apiece so my containers are quite small but wondering what to plan for in the future as my colonies grow. Thank you!

[@carlakellie5358]

Well at the moment I will say the dairy cow my favorite because that is the only kind I have🤣 they are so big and beautiful and I am having a great time caring for them. I do plan to get other kinds

Where did you get these isopods?

[@donteague614]

What species of spring tails? They look larger than the ones I find in my yard.

[@scotthorvath5146]

Do you raise them as good for the other critters or keep them to keep them?

[@Reptiliatus]

You’re most welcome!

[@ffacowgirl]

Do you keep springtails with all of your isopods? I'm setting up my breeding colonies now and was trying to figure out if I should put springtails in them. I have a few cultures with spring tails but the springtails seam to be taking over

[@squidward7834]

How many scorpions do you have. You should do a scorpion collection video.

[@swayback7375]

To find out if you had a morph you would pull out those unique ones, and house them separately in hopes they’d breed and prove out ? Same as snake basically?

[@maleahtortilla587]

Hi I just watched your video about moving your leaf tails out of bioactive and into bins, and it got me thinking (I’m a new reptile owner) I’m not quite sure if I could identify if one of my animals is fine but not “thriving” could you maybe do a video about what to look for for if they are or aren’t thriving? I know it’ll vary from species to species but you could give us some ideas maybe? Idk but that would be a helpful video!

Finally Isopods again :))))
