Hey Wally! I wanted to leave a review of your Supreme Isopod chow now that I have been using it for a few months...is there a place online you would prefer I do so? I have been very happy with your isopod chow, it covers all the bases for the isopods nutritional needs and they truly LOVE it. When I add a little to their enclosures, they are like children of the corn coming out of all their hiding places to munch haha. Its a really nice product to supplement their diet with so you are not constantly feeding the same things and SO easy, also I just feel like the isopods LOOK healthier and happier after eating it. The culture of Dairy Cows I received from you is thriving with your isopod chow as an integral part of their diet and that is proof enough for me! Hoping that soon I will be able to divide another culture off the one I purchased from you! I will definitely be purchasing more Supreme Isopod Chow from you in the future, when I finally run out, also lasts a long time! Thank you Wally!
Thank you for all of your informational and fun videos Wally! All of your isopod knowledge has helped me to successfully keep three Isopod cultures now! Always looking to expand though ;) Armadillidium klugii is definitely on my wish list! Such an awesome surprise, thank you for sharing! Also, thank you for the hook-up on the tubs! I have been getting latching ones that come in a three pack at Home Depot for like $6, but I think yours might be slightly larger. Definitely going to give them a shot.
So pleased to see this. I had been worried that the dry half was too dry for my isopods (I have several species) and I feel a whole lot more confident after watching this.
I bought a very small culture a few weeks ago and it's been dying off. Thanks for the tip on spraying the culture less. I'm definitely going to try that out
Thanks Wally for the video! I'm glad I came across this video as the Clowns haven't been as eager to grow as the other colonies. So it looks like I'll be giving them a much drier environment and see how that goes!
They are very popular but still underrated in my opinion (is that possible? :) (let me know when you are ready as I give supporters to this channel a discount/extra isopods if I can).
@@kanetheoutcast1835 Now I feel bad not being able to connect Ames to use names across social media. :( But thank you so much for the kind words! How are they doing.
Hey Wally, I just wanted to thank you for making these videos on specific care for Isopods. I’ve just purchased my first Isopods and your videos have really helped me in starting my collection. As you can see I’m a tarantula guy so I don’t have much knowledge in keeping Isopods. My starter species are Porcellionides pruinosus, Porcellio laevis, and Armadillidium maculatum. Keep up the good work. 🤓👍🏼
Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching. Congratulation on your new isopods and you have a great start there. As always, please let me know if you have ANY questions whatsoever.
Love your channel. Just getting into isopods and I lean on your vids very heavily. You really seem to care for the little guys and that gives me lots of confidence in your methods. Keep up the awesome content, hope you get more attention, you deserve it.
Thanks Rus. I didn't post the first time I saw them. Checked the enclosure for any different adults and didn't find any. Then waited for the second clutch to show up before showing them off...... and getting completely humiliated! :)
@@SupremeGecko except before I pick them up I set up their substrate a little too moist. So I will have to dry that up a bit. Thanks for the tip :-) :-)
@@SupremeGecko some people are just jealous. Keep up the good work my friend. I have a culture of A. klugii "montenegro" that finally started breeding, and my first batch has at least 2 "pudding" individuals, and I think I see some T+albino as well. I'm super excited.
Same here! I got down to just a handful and changed my process. Hope this help (and when you are ready to get some more, let me know- as a supporter of our channel, I will make sure you get the CZcamsr Discount 😉
Thank you for watching. These isopods are the best. I've been successful with them but at this time, I am sold out. We had a huge response from adding these to the web site. We should have some in a couple months again.
I've been eyeballing those montenegros for some time.....any eta on when they'll be available? I also have a viewer that keeps insisting I need cork bark in my iso enclosures. I use cholla wood and sticks found outside (after cleaning & drying), is it imperative they have CORK bark? If so, why?
Well, I just marked them manually as out of stock. If you want some, as you have been such a welcomed supporter of the channel, send me a message on FB (and if you are looking for any other isopods/Chow and I will make sure you get some (and I'll throw in a free colony as well :) For the wood, maybe I'll add this to the review of your Isopod Setup :)
But why your armadillidium klugii and ones in the image of the online shop where i bought them are black and white? My are red and grey, maybe I don’ t give to eat something important?
I don't mind sharing at all. They are untreated. But, I purchased a couple bags about a year and a half ago and store in plastic tubs. I cannot remember the brand. :( Sorry Shelly
@@SupremeGecko thanks, I was just unsure if you meant like wood bedding pellets. I use pellet bedding for my horses that we expand. Do you know what kind of wood is in the pellets?
Thanks so much Wally. I am going to stop spaying down the whole enclosure of my zebras. I thought they had babies but they were springtails. Are zebra babies the color of the parents when they first start running around? Stay safe.
Good to hear this helps. No, the little we babies (mancae) are actually very similar to dwarf whites- white in color and spend most of the time burrowed in the soil. You will though find them after a feeding by the food.
It did not but here is a video I did on the Top 5 Beginner Isopods- czcams.com/video/tat2FtLTRBI/video.html PLEASE let me know if you have any questions.
I could get lost watching them scuttle around for hours, its incredible. Thanks for the vid Wally
Me Too!!!! Thanks for watching my friend.
Your substrate and feed is like isopod royalty ✨️ 💕 def learned some things thank you!
Fantastic! Thanks for the feedback. Very valuable.
Their gorgeous 😍 love the morphs
Thank you so much
Always nice to see you continually find ways to improve the isopods setup. Like changing tub types when you find one working better.
Always looking to improve. Thanks. How are yours doing?

Happy New Year and thank you very much.
Just pulled out 6 of these light guys so far while upgrading their enclosure 🤩
Oh! Very cool. Their patterns are so varied compared to other isopods. Congratulations.
Thanks for the tip! 🕺🏼
Thank you for watching. I really appreciate it.
I appreciate the content..so its a win win lol
Great video and a cool new morph!!!! Thanks for the break in my boring day and great care tip!

@@SupremeGecko ok sg will do i would love to take a deal maybe in the next two weeks
Thank you for the video
You are most welcome
This will be my next Isopod group. They are like potatoe chips...can't have just one. :)
Yes! I love the analogy. They are.
That is the truest thing ever.
Always great videos!
Thank you very much. Every isopod collection needs A. klugii Clowns :)
Whatever they are - they are pretty
Thank you. I think so too.
Great video as always
Appreciate that

Another great isopod video! Love the red sides on the little guys.
Thanks so much! The picture turned out pretty nice. Thanks.
wow those are beautiful Isopods I really like the yellow ones
They are! Another Must Have isopod in any collection.
So pleased to see this. I had been worried that the dry half was too dry for my isopods (I have several species) and I feel a whole lot more confident after watching this.
Well thank you very much for watching. Which species are you keeping?
I bought a very small culture a few weeks ago and it's been dying off. Thanks for the tip on spraying the culture less. I'm definitely going to try that out
I did the SAME EXACT thing!!! Once I stopped spraying the entire enclosure, WHALAA!
These are 😎
Thanks
Omg! They are georgous! I keep clowns aswell. They are my absolute favorite!
One of mine too. Thank you so much for watching.
These are beautiful! I just ordered isopod chow 👍🏼👍🏼
I cannot thank you enough. We with ship tomorrow. Please please let me know how this works for you.
Supreme Gecko yes of course!
Thanks Wally for the video! I'm glad I came across this video as the Clowns haven't been as eager to grow as the other colonies. So it looks like I'll be giving them a much drier environment and see how that goes!
My pleasure. If you ever have any questions, please let me know.
So beautiful!😍
Thank you very much.
Cant wait to get Clowns!
They are very popular but still underrated in my opinion (is that possible? :) (let me know when you are ready as I give supporters to this channel a discount/extra isopods if I can).
@@SupremeGecko Awesome I bought my first few species from you, and couldnt be happier! I was looking at your shop yesterday lol

@@SupremeGecko Have settled in well and are doing fantastic
Those are so cool!! I learn something every video
Thank you so much. They are a very beautiful isopod.
Wally, you can find those Iris tubs at Costco for $14 for a 4 count, much cheaper
Thanks. I've checked and must have missed them there.
@@SupremeGecko At least at my Costco, they might be a different price in Wisconsin

I thought I was settled on my pods, but now I want these.
Oh, these are one of the classics for sure! Highly recommend these. I'll have only 2 tomorrow (if you get this in time).
Can’t wait for mine to come in going to be like a kid on Christmas thank you Wally
Thanks again. You will love them.
I wish they hadn’t turned out to be stowaways! Great colony nonetheless. 👍
Thanks Rus. I didn't post the first time I saw them. Checked the enclosure for any different adults and didn't find any. Then waited for the second clutch to show up before showing them off...... and getting completely humiliated! :)
I really like these! They’re so.... plump? lol I dunno
Plumpy-pods :)
Supreme Gecko omg yes!!
Hey, I've got some of them! My colony is much smaller than yours is though. No breeding adults yet, but soon. =)
Soon..... soon. 😊 (thank you for watching and let me know if you ever have any questions.
Let us know when they are sellable and we will be lining up for yellow clowns
Just bought a group of 30 of the lil beauties! :)
Congratulations. You will love them. Keep me posted on how they do.
@@SupremeGecko except before I pick them up I set up their substrate a little too moist. So I will have to dry that up a bit. Thanks for the tip :-) :-)
@@johnnygalaxy9022 Ahhh, we're all learning, right? :) Enjoy
@@SupremeGecko that's the fun part! But the less isopods I kill the better I feel :-)
@@johnnygalaxy9022 I gotcha on that one
Nice sir
Thank you and thank you very much for watching.
Great video as always! It would be interesting to see how those albinos come along.
For sure! Thanks.
Those yellow clowns look exactly like Talbinos to me lol. Literally identical with color, size and shape lol.
:)
Well, after further review, it is looking like these may be Armadillidium vulgare T+ Albinos. Bummer but better explains things.
.
Don't see how they would be.
@@hlessiavedon right.
@@SupremeGecko some people are just jealous. Keep up the good work my friend. I have a culture of A. klugii "montenegro" that finally started breeding, and my first batch has at least 2 "pudding" individuals, and I think I see some T+albino as well. I'm super excited.
@@hlessiavedon Thank you! And Congrats on the A. klugii
Just subbed
Thank you. Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions.
I lost my first clown colony. Could not tell what was wrong. But im not discoureged I will try again.
Same here! I got down to just a handful and changed my process. Hope this help (and when you are ready to get some more, let me know- as a supporter of our channel, I will make sure you get the CZcamsr Discount 😉
@@SupremeGecko im going to have to take you up on this offer. Gonna go look at your list on the website to check off others off the wishlist.
Again old video but I have clowns. I have few color morphs. They came mixed. But I can not wait for reproduction to start with them.
Another fun aspect of keeping isopods.
Checked out your vivarium videos like you suggested and finally landed on this species for my enclosure, do you have these for sale?
Thank you for watching. These isopods are the best. I've been successful with them but at this time, I am sold out. We had a huge response from adding these to the web site. We should have some in a couple months again.
Supreme Gecko No problems thanks for reply

@@SupremeGecko You just gave me a thrill in my tummy! Yayyy! I'll head over to FB today and hit you up in private message!
Hey, do you kinda sterilize the leaf litter by boiling or do you just put them in fresh out of your backyard?
Hi Joy. Great question. I sterilize by keeping the leaves/any wood I collect out in the sun in big black bags.
But why your armadillidium klugii and ones in the image of the online shop where i bought them are black and white?
My are red and grey, maybe I don’ t give to eat something important?
Yours may be a different location.
Is there an update on these Wally?
Update? About the yellow one? That was a hitchhiker :(
Great video. What temperature do you keep them at?
Right now around 72ish. They will be around 77ish in another month or so. Full breeding temp.
@@SupremeGecko Thanks for the quick response.
@@waxwing35 Of course
