What’s in a Name Isopods

Which names will you choose?

Let’s face it — we all love giving our pets names, whether it be a dog, a cat, or a colony of isopods.

Wait, did I say naming isopods? Umm, yeah! Why the hecky not!!

Here at What’s in a Name Isopods, you can adopt various colonies of isopods for a rehoming fee. Not only do you get ‘pods, but you also get a pre-named colony. Do you want the “Bob” colony? You might want six cubaris sp. Panda King isopods and get the lovely Bobina, Robert, Bob, Bobby, Rob, and Bobert. Like I said, why the hecky not?

What’s in a Name Isopods is located on Long Island, New York, USA. Named colonies are available for local pickup and at reptile expos. Contact Rachel at rachelcsilverstein@gmail.com for more info about how to obtain your very own named isopod colony.

I am currently not shipping any live animal orders, sorry!
