$2 per isopod

Open a label for the note on this listing. Brood counts are not taken from a census of these bins.
Habitat
Borneo is kept as a warm, humid display isopod. Use a deep damp side, cork or bark to climb, and enough holes that the lid does not sweat all day. A dried moss pocket is the usual failure.
Diet
Decaying hardwood leaves first. Protein can be offered in a tiny portion a couple of times a week. Mold on the food is a signal to feed less, not to add more.
Breeding
Often slower and shyer than Porcellio. This shop does not publish a brood size for Borneo.
A good fit
A humid display animal. Skip it as a first colony, and do not count on it to clean a dry reptile tank.
