Due to human travel, it quickly became a cosmopolitan species that is widespread all over the world, now found on most (if not all) landmasses around Earth. Wild type Porcellio laevis are grey, glossy and slightly smaller than captive bred ones due to their rough life in the wild, although they are still extremely prolific. They are great at cleaning up, although they are more likely to get snacked on by the animal than other morphs of Porcellio laevis (wild type, dairy cow, snow white) because of their bright, vibrant orange colour that makes them easier to see up against almost every substrate. If using as a clean-up crew (which is definitely doable) make sure to provide lots of protein for them and occasional topups if your animal you are using them for is quite large and eats lots of them, or start with a larger amount (100-200)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscovered by Pierre André Latreille, a French zoologist who is widely considered the father of modern day entomology, in 1804 he published Porcellio laevis in his massive 14-volume work on natural history \u003cem\u003eHistory Naturelle\u003c\/em\u003e, by combining the Latin genus Porcellio \"meaning little pig) with the species name laevis (meaning smooth) Latrielle perfectly captured the creatures glossy, bulky appearance that makes up the modern day captive bred isopods we have today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHO IS THIS SPECIES FOR?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specific \"Giant Orange\" morph is perfect for reptile keepers of isopods enthusiasts looking to create a highly visible, supercharged bioactive clean-up crew, or an eye catching, prolific variety to get started off in the realm of isopods as pets. It is amazing for those keeping larger, high waste reptiles like bearded dragons as long as there is extra protein available to avoid swarms of isopods attacking the animals (yes, sometimes they may do that if extremely protein deprived, especially when the animal has recently shed and is in a state of vulnerability) They have an extremely good metabolism, allowing them to eat masses of food at incredible rates, making them the perfect clean up crew for your larger, or even smaller animals in moderation. It is also ideal for impatient isopod hobbyists who want to see their colony boom extremely quickly, as the Giant Orange Porcellio laevis is one of - if not the most - fast breeding isopods that TerraPods offers, standing alongside Porcellionides pruinosis and a runner up being Porcellio scaber. You will have a massive population in no time, as each female is capable of producing up to 50 mancae a month under ideal conditions.

The wild-type coloration consists of a beautiful dark slate-grey to charcoal body, often accented by pale, ghost-like markings or lighter translucent margins along the outer edges of their segments.

Unlike large, colorful display species, these isopods are exceptionally small, reaching a maximum length of only about 2mm to 3mm as fully grown adults. They feature a clean, completely white or translucent exoskeleton with a slightly rough, granular texture under close inspection. They are a tropical, soil-dwelling species that spends its entire life beneath the surface or buried deep within live moss.

They are not meant to be a high-visibility display animal, as they strictly hide away from the light.
