emily spends her time dropping strands of pasta on a potato... ed buys $1,000 worth of isopods... all while the pokemon have a ritual on the stove with a cooking pan. *guys it's going crazy in that house-*

My husband said "that's a lot of money for bugs". My daughter (6, she and I have been watching forever) said " they aren't bugs. They're isopods."

The thing I love most about Ed and Emily is they get so genuinely excited about what I’d call woodlice. And so I get excited about them too. It’s infectious. :) how did you guys meet? A mutual love of animals? Or maybe Pokémon?

I'm from Spain and since I was a child I've called this bugs "bicho bola" (which would translate in...ball bug?) it was really interesting to learn more about them!

Speaking as someone who spent thousands on decorative aquarium shrimp, I can totally respect Ed's purchase here.

Emily, we really need to talk about the Pokémon cult that keeps having meetings in your kitchen.

Most people: "Oh hey! A bonus! I'll buy things that are reasonable" Ed: "Oh hey! Isopods!"

Not Emily at the beginning trying to balance dry noodles on a potato. It’s so funny how she just sends the potato and the noodles straight into the abyss. 😂❤

Because there’s no more snakes in the house they are slowly filling it up again with isopods 😂

I can attest to the fact that powder oranges do breed quickly 🤣 it’s not my home now, it’s theirs

They may not all be exciting because you have seen most of those colors, but they certainly are for me- they’re a lot different from the common Rolly-Pollies I see in my mom’s flower garden 😅

19:45 Emily: looks back at all the Pokémon meeting up Also Emily: says nothing about them and moves on Edit: Emily: looks back and says “it’s getting late”

The first thing I see in the video is emily putting pasta on a potato... *I'm satisfied*

The fact that Ed said “hey babe” to Emily just melts my heart

Ed is such a mischievous child at heart. I love it

having bred my own isopods starting with just a mix of 25 random morphs and a few others (to get genetic variety boosted), it's so cool to see the different types of P. scaber. I have personally bred Lava, white out, dalmation, and koi. They're so lovely!

"...and it's not because we're addicted to isopods." Everyone: *presses x to doubt*

You know he's a keeper when he not only feeds your obsessions, but develops the obsession himself. 😂

I've never heard Ed call Emily babe that just proves that their love is there

The two of you remind me of my late husband and myself. I love watching the two of you.

Ed: “You said I could spend it on anything I wanted” He really pushed you into a corner with that one

Either the other Pokémon are trying to cook charmander or he’s enjoying a hot tub lol

Ok but someone needs to make a 10 hour loop of Emily putting pasta on a potato

$1,000 on bugs! Wow! But the overall happiness is priceless!❤️

Most people when they get a bonus: “Cool! I'll put this in my bank account." Ed: *I s o p o d s*

Paleontology nerd here, Anorith is actually modeled after the extinct arthropod Anomalocaris, but I do agree that the three look very similar haha :)

OMG you guys are so adorable going nuts over isopods! They are pretty cute lol

I met some isopods today as I was planting. Before, I would have never thought of touch it but now I actually even pick them up and hold them on my hands. I definitely look forward seeing them whenever I till the soil. It's like finding some golden nuggets in a pit of sand. So cute and small ♥️ plus I get to know the soil I have is actually bioactive

Ed’s totally addicted to isopods. They’re like children to him.

I can imagine Ed in the facility, everyone is working and he is just sitting in a corner with isopods yelling I AM NOT ADDICTED!

A channel after my own heart! As a kid I loved these rolly pollies, but never seen the spotted variety, and yes they're absolutely gorgeous!

you peps are so lucky hard to find peps like you never change

I think Emily has learned to never use a predictable password. Ed will buy $1,000 dollars worth of isopods.

Since isopods are hard to view in a zoo type setting, but there's so much greatness to view, you should set up an isopod exhibit in your zoo that includes some sort of "special magnifying" viewing goggles that kids can look through to see "inside the world of isopods" but what the kids will really be seeing is a pre-recorded video that shows lots of zoomed in, interesting isopod activity. That could be a really cool exhibit.

I use to play with these little guys at recess all the time. Didn't expect I'd be able to smell this video but I guess the memories stuck with me

I must say theses two are the kindest, pure hatred , inspirational couple on the net , everything I see them do is to include people never exclude , they never try and sound smarter or better than anyone , they teach in such a cool way ….. They have also done more than any other channel to untie our community, they are all about building a huge family where everyone matters ….. again there isn’t enough words in the English language to describe how amazing they are !

"So they're drama queens?" Put those in the hognose habitats.

My dad works for the Post Office in Tennessee. . . Now I wanna ask him why your Isopods were held captive for 4 days 😂😂

OMG I totally fell in love with Isopods because you guys!!!

I fell down the isopod rabbit hole and it is so much fun. Thanks for the help ❤

them calling the “isopods” a bunch of fancy names:-_-_-_-_- me: so basically colorful roly pollys

Welp another reason for why they married each other: They both can't help with spontaneous buys.

Ed's obsession with isopods is so cute!

Glad to see these all in one run through. I feel confident that they are actually very different from the rollie pollies that I grew up playing with. These don’t seem to be able to make that tight ball shape. Gosh I loved those little rollies as a kid. They were so gentle and adorable. Glad I accidentally kept a bunch of leaf litter in my little habitats for them with my caterpillars. Back then there was no internet. I just grabbed the stuff I always found them in because they clearly loved it. Because I was not sure what the insects needed, I would only keep a habitat for a couple weeks before putting them all back where I found them. Always making a new habitat each time I found new critters (frogs, crawfish, snakes, insects, lizards, and newts).

"And it's not because he is addicted to isopods" 😂😂

Imagine just going into the kitchen and seeing Emily putting pasta on potatoes-

WOW! Had no idea isopods came in so many colors and patterns. As a kid loved them. Called them rolly polly's and found them fascinating. Such pretty isopods. The ones that hiss, amazing!

My favourites were dairy cow isopods but my new favourite is now the Armadillidium werneri orange :) They are so amazing looking!

Instead of snakes at their house, and a snake rack, they're going to have a isopod rack soon. I can just smell it.

LOL “ it can not be 1,000” “it’s not Over 1,000😅”

I have always been very "meh" about isopods, but this has made me like them. I think the black & white Porcellio Flavomarginatus, and the orange Armadillidium Werneri were my favourites. Kind cute. I like the last two too.

Oh my god. I love the isopod that lept out of the container 'saying' "For Narnia, FOR ASLAN" XD

Ed: “Hey babe!” Emily: *Playing with spaghetti and a potato* *YEETS OF THE COUNTER* “What!?” It’s bootiful 😂 Edit: OH. MY. GOSH. I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN SO MANY LIKES SHDGDHDVDCUFVFJCHDHDBVB TYSM!!!!!

I've only ever seen grey isopods where I live but they're so darn cute and all of these are so darn beautiful

As a spaniard, its so cool to see you two talking about the kind of isopods native to my country :)

We got Pokémon cooking each other, Emily building a mountain with noodles and a potato, and Ed just not mentioning the mess she YEETed onto the floor. I can’t help but wonder if the snakes were the voices of reason in this household and without them, they all are going insane. 🤣

Props to the ppl who dont own any reptiles but still support their channel

I've always loved isopods but I've only ever seen the two common grey species that you can find in every garden, so seeing these was exciting. I think my favourite is still the Porcellio flavomarginatus, since I love black&white but not a big fan of orange.

12:29 I see the regular grey version all the time! Used to hunt for them when I was a kid

Ed: "you said i could spend it on anything I wanted." Emily: "I did didn't I" Immediate look of regret. So when you got a bunch of money what did you do? Ed: "I bought Isopodsss!!"

Emily: “how much did you spend on these?” Ed: “don’t worry about it” ... Emily: “$100?” Ed “uh well if we’re going that route, a LITTLE more than that” $1000 Yes just a little more than [$100] 😏

OOH the flavomarginatuses and the (orange) werneris and the two kinds of expansuses are SOOO pretty! I never knew there was so much variety in "Roly-polies"

Omg have so much fun to watch you open your boxes!!!

Love that you included “And for Aslan!” It seems like most people forget that part when saying “For Narnia!”

Ed when he gets a bonus: "You told me I could buy anything I want...so I bought ISOPODS"

I love when u have a hole enclosure with different types of millipedes, ispods and spring tails

I live in Spain and here there are isopods everywhere is very common for kids to play with them especially the armadillo officinalis that is extremely common in every city town or forest even in the beach

I've seen so many comments on your channel about how you helped people get over their fear of snakes. I've never had a problem with snakes, but you are slowly selling me on insects. "Look, they're so cute!"

Emily: drops spaghetti on potato Pokemon in back: ritual time Potato: why is Emily doing this?

I’ve got some powder orange isopods in my bioactive setup! I love it when they come up every once in awhile. Sometimes I’m worried they all got murked by my gecko(I have seen her catch one before) but I always manage to find one or two! Love those little guys. Funnily enough I ordered a different species, since they were marked as sold out, but a mixup happened and I ended up with some little orange fellas instead!

I just fell in love with isopods!!! 💙

The Pokémon having a cult sacrifice in the back: *you’re addicted* Ed: IM NOT ADDICTED

Is this anyone else’s favorite YT channel!?

I wish they do more videos on these guys. I love them n it makes me want to start my own little colony

" I spend money well" says Ed after buying 1,000 dollars worth of isopods😂😂

I never thought I would see someone spend 1,000 dollars on bugs

Emily: Plays noodle Janga on a potato. Ed: "Hey Babe!!". Emily: Yeets Noodle Janga off counter forcing her self to lose :>

I kept some roly polys from my yard in my terrarium. And they really multiplied. Da babies!!! 🥰

3:18 In Spain we call these ‘bicho bola’, which means ball bug

"He's not addicted" "He can stop anytime he wants" The first step to resolving a problem is admitting to it 😜

Hey Emily, don't apologise for having dirty hands, it just shows you've been working really hard and we all are very proud of you❤️😊🌟

Does anyone else keep isopods and freak out from the rarity of these one?😂 Thanks for sharing these animals to the world, SD. I appreciate it a tremendous amount.

2:50 One of the black-and-white ones said “Don’t poke meh”

Ed: “They also eat baby’s” Emily “awwhh that’s good”

Emily: *turns around* Doesn’t even care that charmander is being cooked 😂

I love you guys and ur channel! Just started watching!!! I can’t believe I watched a whole video just on isopods😂😂

KZfaq, you have done well with this one. One random video of a lady running around her neighborhood for jumping spiders and now I'm hooked.

ed is obsessed with da rolie pollies

'you said I could buy whatever I wanted, so ... ISOPODS' Ed you are so pure and enthusiastic, never change

I love his enthusiasm 😂 ISOPODS!!!

The way she destroys her potato creation with dried spaghetti XD 😂😂😂

I just had a mind-blowing moment when I realized that isopods were rolly polys! 😲😲

Me, staring at my husband: Soooo, you know that snake youtube I follow? The ones with the facility they're working on? Him, not looking up from his phone: We are not driving 6 hours to their opening day. Me: But baaaaaaaaaabeeeee.

Wow, I never knew that tolly pollys were isopods! And I never knew they could be pretty either! Thanks for sharing ❤

That 'Baaabeee' and Emily throwing the pasta and potato on the floor just really got me

"You told me to spend it on anything I wanted, so I bought isopods" That sounds like something I would do...

Me who called them Rolly pollys my entire life : C O N F I S I O N

Amazing. Didn't know there were so many different types

I see the black hissing ones all over where we live and they roll up when scared or hurt and we call them rolly pollies 😊

All over Europe? I'm from Europe, Germany & we've got just lame grey ones. Would be cool to see some orange ones running around!
