Porcellio scaber "Spanish orange" was initially distributed under the moniker "Giant orange", but has since been renamed for clarification as there are larger, arguable more orange isopods with either orange mutations or that naturally appear orange.

Starbright is another kid out of Chocolate starfish x Smashed Spider. The soft scale gene did exactly what I wanted it to, and this 32g subadult female is a deliciously dark phantom.

Porcellio scaber "Snow Koi" is a morph combo of the Yellow Snow and Koi genes in porcellio scaber.

I'm gonna be honest, if you have bad eyesight don't get these unless you like to torture yourself. They are pretty, but it has a very vague, faint pattern.

Spawn of Slithus was produced out of Musketeers x Ridonkulous. She has the soft scale gene, which makes her look like a freshly cut marbled cake. Her markings connect between the side harlequin markings and the dorsal drips; so I consider her an extreme harlequin. Weighing in at 50g, she is ready to breed.

Hi friend, I see you tried very hard to make a setup but this is not great. Please remember that isopods usually succumb to poor airflow, and need adequate side ventilation, in addition to a thick layer of leaf litter!

Porcellio scaber "Skewbald Tri" is a morph combo of Calico + piebald. As such, only the females express the calico to varying degrees- this can be a tricky one to encourage the best pattern, and a population keepers have to be on top of to keep the contrast high.

Space Suit is a 30g subadult female produced out of Zest x Cream Cheese. While she doesn't have the best contrast, she could be exponentially useful in a tri color project. While she didn't get her mother's soft scale gene, I'm a big fan of the pattern scattered along her sides.

Planetary Alignment is a gorgeous, thick girl out of Centurion x Void. She has a deeply dark base, lending to some massive contrast and just a thick head and wide dorsum. I plain to pair her to Edible Man, and she will be one of very few pairs we run this year.

Space Craft is a 30g female produced out of DingDing x Divinity, giving her a 50% chance to be heterozygous for axanthic. She's kept her father's gorgeous dark base, and has retained a delightful amount of pattern from her mother.

Porcellio scaber "Piebald" can vary in expression to nearly-white animals to nearly all dark animals; but we try to encourage a high contrast population. My personal favorites and the little guys that come out looking like oreos.
