Isopods?

[WorldofHamsters]

I want to get into breeding isopods, it only if they can be eaten by hamsters. So can they?

They can eat them, but whether they will is another question haha. None of my hamsters like them, and neither do my insectivores lol

Eclipse wants to live the life of a carnivore, so hopefully she’ll enjoy them. I’ll get a few first to see. I’m interested in genetics, but don’t have the resources (or want) to breed anything else, and they have some cool mutations.

Parsnip never ate isopods when they were living with her I had to regularly remove some because they started over populating. Tbf i wouldn’t bother getting them as a food source they aren’t particularly nutritious anyway they are mostly exoskeleton they are super cool low maintenance pets though.

I’ve kept isopods with my hamster too, mainly for cleanup and because they're fun to watch. If you're thinking about adding some, Cubaris isopods are a cool choice—they stay small and look really unique. I got mine from https://postpods.co.uk/collections/cubaris-isopods and they arrived healthy. Just make sure there's enough leaf litter and moisture in one part of the enclosure so everyone’s comfy.
