Episode 37. "The Isopod Episode" with Rachel Schindler of Pet Pedes and Pods

Dan Drobates

Microfauna are an integral part of naturalistic vivariums. Many keepers are utilizing isopods as supplemental cleanup crews and, as the hobby develops, they are becoming more and more popular. Rachel Schindler of Pet Pedes and Pods was kind enough to sit down with me tonight and share some of her insights into isopod keeping. Rachel breeds and works with dozens of different varieties of isopods and millipedes; and in this episode we not only talk about how to keep  isopods successfully as cleanup crews, but also how to keep some of the more collectible species on their own.  We also get into millipede care and the state of the isopod hobby.
