Childhood me: playing with rolly pollies in the yard Adult me: Watching a video about fancy rolly pollies

I'm surprised and sad that we didn't get to see Timmy the isopod from the Decay snakes home. My favorite was the milkbacks

I love how you have the isopods to keep the snakes clean and springtails to keep the isopods clean 😃

"So I found this one at the bottom of the ocean-" *holds up what is essentially a titanic rolly-polly/pill bug*

If you say "meet all of our isopods", I expect to be introduced to every single one of them by name. I feel cheated by this video. (joking, love it!)

I actually found one of these In my garden once when I was 6. I looked at its belly and I was like oh woah she’s pregnant, I made her a pirate ship out of cardboard to live on and I named her rapunzle. A few days later there were 100s of little babies just crawling all over. They are my fav bugs still now

Me: ROLLY POLLYS!!! Snake Discovery: no....isopods. Me: ROLLY POLLYS!!!

I love how Ed really has his moment to shine in the isopod videos! He loves them I can tell.

And now I'm imagining Emily putting a ginormous deep-sea isopod on a leash and walking it around Petsmart xD

I was incredibly distracted/amused by the drawing of isopods over that white chocolate picture on the container. Lololol

Thank you Ed and Emily for slowly getting me to love all the creatures I was squeamish off: snakes, spiders and now bugs. Your enthousiasm to teach is lovely to see, the facility will be such an awesome place to do that and I wish I didn’t live so far away (europe) so I could visit.

Kid me: playing with rolly pollies in my garden Practically teen me: 👁👄👁 amazed by even more rolly pollies

May I humbly suggest Armadillo officinalis? They are quite large, look like tiny busses and become spherical and hiss when you disturb them. They take some time to grow up and reproduce, but studies suggest they might get quite a lot older than your average isopod, and that’s pretty cool if you ask me!

The belly scales are probably tougher to eat and that's why they avoid them.

I’ve started collecting them from outside to selectively breed. It’s been very fun! There’s so much variety!

The way you guys drew in isopod features in that one box... it's so cute.

My brother used to love these when he was little and didn't tell anyone that he put two in a Tupperware with a wet paper towel.... And then forgot about them for MONTHS. They were so happy and absolutely exploded in numbers.

The orange + dalmatian should be called Koi because they look like Koi fish!

When it's safe to travel, I would absolutely love to see a collab between you guys and Ants Canada Channel.

Her:“You are so pretty” Bug: 🥰 Me: 👁👄👁

I love how she gives personalities to random creatures she meets using captions

Who else think they should make a shirt that says “you can’t cry over spilled milkback” with a isopod on it Thank you sooooo much for the likes!!

Before I watched your channel I would have never given Isopods or insects a chance. They're really starting to grow on me. Thank you Ed and Emily for doing all that you do to bring education to people about these lovely little creatures

No one: Literally no one: Me: **thinking of Timmy the isopod**

nearly midnight and i'm looking at isopods talking about burritos who else thinks emily had a lot of fun editing the isopods thoughts

I never knew people kept “Rollie pollies” as pets. I used to play with them when I was little, my grandma called them Rollie pollies. 😊

My favourite has always been the “Dairy Cow” isopods because i think they are super cute. Of the ones you showed, I love the Calico and the Dalmatian types, and the peach ones. But really, all of them are so awesome

Wisconsin set-up needs some creeping charlie to really make it authentic.

Ok, I HAD to look up Rubber Ducky isopods just to see what they look like and cuz I thought "come on, how expensive can they be?" They are absolutely adorable, but $100-$130 for just 5?!🤯

Emily: I’d love to have 14in isopods Ed, sweating: bUT YOU CANT.... because.... they live in the OCEAN

I think the orange Dalmatians are my favorites. They're so cute! They look like a dreamsicle ice cream kinda

*u were on my recommendation,now I’m binge watching*

Y’all should get Cubaris murina “little sea” or, if you can spare the money, Porcellio hoffmanseggi - which get bigger than the giant canyons!

The “For Narnia” was the best comedy I’ve witnessed in the last decade!

I’ve such strong memories as a child of picking up Isopods and flipping them upside down to see if they had anything in their brood pouch!

I personally keep porcellio scabers, wild types and Calicos/marbled. I get them from around my house, daily I can find 10 - 20 isopods which is pretty cool :) they are so fun to take care of and they are easy, I highly recommend them if you want a pretty cool pet Edit: I just got my first lava :0

Btw, I would make sure to mark on your website that your facility is handicap accessible!

I can imagine all the isopods screaming "EARTHQUAKE!" when Ed was shaking the tower to show how well it stacks

you are now the reason i read up on isopods at 3 am and have a multi-day plan to prepare, arrange a inclosure, and catch some local ones to keep.

13:31 I can't get over all the little wiggling legs. They're so cute!

Giant sea isopods: Exists carboniferous: *Laughs in Arthropleura*

I looove isopods. The ones I have currently are zebra, clown, reds and dairy cow Isopods! Ones I recommend (and that I also personally want to get in the future) are Armadillidium magic potions and Porcellio hoffmanseggi. Magic potions are very pretty and breed quite well. The Hoffs can grow to nearly 2 inches or more and they also show some parental instincts, they will guard the babies after they are born and even bring them food. Such fascinating little creatures! On a semi related note, check out Pill Millipedes! Due to Convergent Evolution they evolved the exact same defense as armadillidium species entirely separate from them! They aren't even closely related! Bugs are so neat.

Hi,I have never chatted on here but I just wanted to say,I love your videos!You encouraged me and my dad to get two corn snakes and later on an albino ball pyhton,we picked the starters as we were starters,but we love snakes!

I love how cute the snakes are and I love how the whiskers move on though bug The orange ones beautiful

Timmy not being first: “you don’t care about me”

I like to think moody has little council meetings with the isopods under the water bowl. Planning the neighborhoods, the food, how to escape, stuff like that😂

This video is relaxing to watch and I love this channel

You can’t tell me those isobods are not beautiful the patterns and the colors are so natural and amazing I’m in love with all of them

In Italian they are called "porcellino di sant'antonio" or Saint Anthony's Little Pigs!!

Isopods: no Cute Rolly Pollys: *yes*

I remember watching this channel about 2-3 years ago. Man this brings memories 😁

I’ve got “dairy cow” isopods! I just noticed this week that the very smallest baby podlings can escape their exoterra terrarium and they dry up and die in the barren wasteland that is my dresser top 😢 Idk how to stop it. My culture is still going strong but it’s sad to think of the podlings getting lost and dying of exposure

Me: *waits for Timmy the isopod*

The little Wisconsin isopods saying, "We love cheese! And beer! And the Packers!" 😂

I love the grand canyon isopods. Excited to see your care video since I want to start keeping them soon.

I love watching these videos because they help me get over my fear of insects (Snake Discovery already helped me get rid of my fear of snakes!). I will never stop being amazed by all the creatures Emily (and Ed) find cute.

I don’t even have any pets, snakes, or insects, so why the heck am I even watching some random people talk about their random critters?? Jk, love your videos ❤️ Edit: thanks for the likes :3

Random thought: The Dalmatian / Orange Isopods hybrids should be called Koi Isopods!!!! Where the heck did these likes come from?!!!!

This is just my comfort channel right now.

“He eats burritos sideways like a corn on the cob” by god I think a bit of a cull is necessary here.

You make bugs look so wholesome. if only they could knock before entering my home lol

I got curious and looked into whether giant isopods are difficult to keep and found that the Florida Keys Aquarium has an open air tank where guests are encouraged to put their hand in and interact with giant isopods. All that seems to be required is 50 degree water and one would assume some specific water conditions. They don't seem to have to be kept at any specific pressure.

Finally getting into isopods more seriously and forgot SD did a video for these. Excited to learn more!

Over the summer I brought in 12 isopods I found in my backyard. Within a few months there were hundreds upon hundreds of babies!! It was so cool. I'd put a whole carrot in there, and they would have it gone in a couple weeks. Such cool little critters!

Wow I actually have a hobby of trying to find isopods Edit: wow i didn't know how many people agreed also thanks for the likes!

I love the orange and Dalmatian ones because when they’re together they look like the colors of a creamsicle 😋

I love how there are random springtails running around too.

I recognized a couple that I've seen over here in the northeast! I had no idea some had pouches 😱 That's adorable! My fav has to be the orange, they were stunning.

The Orange Dalmatian should just be called "Land Koi"

We have the giant canyon isopods where I live, in Erie, co, and I have caught some who are pregnant and they actually gave birth like 5 minutes after I caught them.

You’ve got some amazing isopods, Please can you do a video on how to care for them, food, moisture etc, Thanks😁

I love your videos I learn a lot from you guys and I love the way you care for your animals

I will personally name each and every isopod you own This is not a suggestion, this is demand

8:35 Ed and I said "He's doing crunches." at the exact same time.

Thank you for showcasing these different species of isopods! I am an isopod enthusiast also!

:0 YOU HAVE THOSE!!?? nice!! I don’t see them anymore.. but I love to see them!! They are so cute!

Love to see these cuties getting the spotlight

Guys, PLEASE get violet dwarfs! They're my favorites and I'd love to be able to buy a culture from your shop!!

The running commentary from the isopods was cracking me up! 😆

Some more stuff about rolly pollies, since I've seen some comments about them (not an expert, just good at using google). What most people know as rolly pollies are also know as pill bugs, or woodlice, part of a family known as Armadillidiidae, and they can roll themselves into wee little balls when threatened. It's called conglobation, and is shared by all critters in that family. And yes, they are isopods, but not all isopods roll themselves up when threatened.

12:37. Ok, can we all just appreciate the cute art on that Milanos tin? 😂

Me (who is usually creeped out by most insects) when I see this video: YES ANOTHER VIDEO!!!!!!! Darn it I have to do school and I don’t want to get distracted :( Me a little while later: Yes I finally get to watch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Note: thank you so much Emily and Ed for all the hard work you do for your channel and for Snake Discovery. Good luck with the facility and I can’t wait for it to be finished! Thank you so so so much for all you guys do and for everything that you work for. It is people like you that make a difference. You are such good role models and have inspired and taught so many people. Thank you for all you do :)

I adore the "Milan *OH NO!* " Isopod Box at 4:37

My faves were the orange, the lava and the monte negro 👍 Lol “but containers!” was adorable! 💖 Lol and Ed tripping over arma--lol 😅

yes!!!! thank you so much for the isopod videos!!!!! i'm autistic and i've always had a special interest in isopods, so this makes me very happy (:

Midwestern isopods: “Want some more ranch?” “Let’s go ice fishing” “You drive safe now” * Sees Porcellio scaber * “Blaze orange? Nice.”

that was a massively enjoyable episode, thank you.

Ooh the Granulated Isopods are gorgeous! They look like they have gold flakes down their backs!!

"OMG I LOVE BURRITOS" *orange scaber scurries back to conversation* The screencaptions be killin me 😭💀

I'm now expecting next video to be "how to socialize your isopods"

This video spiralled into me making a discord essay on isopods. Thanks, snake discovery. Also, bioactive janitors would be an amazing band name.

wow. in Utah, we do call them potato bugs, but since my mom grew up in Virginia, i call them rollie pollies. the ones here are just plain black/grey, but i did find a really cool colony when my parents were gardening there was a huge pile if dirt and i found there was a ton of them. i grabbed a container and put leaf litter and dirt and sticks then a bit of water. i grabbed as many as I could find then took them to the front of my house where a bunch of step able plants were and let them go. i found that the biggest was half black and half grey. it was REALLY cool.

"Meet all of our isopods!" Me: ....don't mind if I do

I've had my electricity out for 15 hours straight and finally we got our power back, and I immediately watched this video and now I'm happy. Thank you 😄 I must prepare for another blackout with more Snake Discovery videos lol

i just recently started collecting and breeding wild types. i have a lot of calico looking ones now, some that look almost like zebras, some red, some brown, some orange, some shiny black, some dull gray. such a great mix from my own backyard! saved them from the firewood pile haha. also got a couple dwarfs and HUGE ones including something ive never seen before. was a dark gray, about a half inch long, and its head was almost its own separate piece of the isopod. it was like 3 skinnier section of armor and then its head. almost like a centipede head on an isopod body. super cool!

Whoa, so many! :) The big ones are kinda like corkroaches for me. For me the prettiest may be those with white and yellow dots all along their back.

MOTHER, TELL ME WHICH ISOPOD SPECIES AM I? I NEED TO KNOW NOW

I’ve seen baby isopods. My life is complete. Love the Zebras.

me watching this video : emily, talking about isopods and obsessing over them *me, not listening but watching the teeny tiny ones scatter and the subtitles the editor put in there*

I have porcellio lavis and springtails in a little tank! Bought as cleanup crew but I fell in love with them hehe!
