Armadillidium Vulgare Albino T

CARE NOTES

Keeping considerations

Armadillidium vulgare Albino T- | The Ghost Pill Bug The Armadillidium vulgare Albino T- is a striking genetic marvel. In this strain, the "T-" (Tyrosinase-negative) mutation completely blocks the production of melanin. The result? A pristine, porcelain-white to pale-cream exoskeleton paired with beautiful, ruby-red eyes. Because they are A. vulgare, they retain the classic "Pill Bug" ability to roll into a perfect, seamless white sphere that looks like a small pearl. They are hardy, active, and bring a clean, high-contrast look to any enclosure---especially when housed on dark soil or green moss. If you want a "designer" isopod that is as resilient as the common garden variety but looks like a rare laboratory gem, the Albino T- is the one. 🧬 Species Highlights Scientific Name: Armadillidium vulgare* "Albino T-" * Visuals: Pure snow-white to cream body with translucent, deep red/pink eyes. * Genetics: Tyrosinase-negative (True Albinism). * Behavior: Very active and bold; they are excellent explorers and don't hide as much as other morphs. * Size: Medium (reaches approximately 1.5cm - 1.8cm).
