In this variation, both the males and females exhibit the same beautiful coloration. This is in stark contrast to a typical calico, where due to the gene for the Calico expression being carried only by the X chromosome, only females have the coloration.                 Porcellio scaber - Orin's Calico Isopods  Difficulty: Moderate Size: .68 inches.
