Below I attached a video of a porcellio hoffmannseggi mother defending her cave. The small hoffmannseggi offspring seem to stay with their mother until reaching a certain size. The mother actively defends this area and also gets various food to eat directly to her cave. The offspring stays there approximately four to five weeks before roaming the area on their own.

The males also fight sometime. Showcased below is one of such a fight.

And a rather rare sight: A female Porcellio hoffmannseggi giving birth.



Porcellio expansus

Origin: Spain
