Introducing Pocket Pets Color Changing Blue Merle Roly Polys Rolie Polie Isopods, the coolest isopods you'll ever own. These fascinating creatures change color as they get close to molting their exoskeleton. They turn into a radiant blue and after molting, they become a deep, dark purple.
How cool is that. These Blue Merle Roly Polies are extremely soft-shelled and perfect for carrying in your pocket and taking to school or work. With delicate handling, these fast and fearless creatures will be snug as a bug in your pocket habitat.
And, unlike other species, Blue Merle's will run instead of curling into a ball when they are scared. Growing to almost half an inch long, these Blue Merle's can live for 3-4 years and become sexually mature at around 3-4 months old. They prefer temperatures between 70-85 degrees F and 75-85% humidity, but can tolerate temperatures as low as 40 degrees.
These creatures will eat just about anything organic, including most vegetables, grains, and fish food, making them easy and affordable to care for. Just like all isopods/rolies, Blue Merle’s get along well with other species of isopods/rolies, so you can easily add them to your existing isopod colony. We ship our pets when they are approximately 3-4 months old, and while the pictures you see represent the adult version of our pets, the items available for sale are shipped as immature stages of the available species.
Recommended for ages 8 and up, these Pocket Pets Roly Polys, Blue Merle Roly Polies, Rolie Polie Isopods, and Blue Merle Isopods are perfect for those curious about isopod species, roly poly care, habitat, diet, and breeding.
