Pillbugs
LIFE CYCLE
The females deposit up to 200 eggs in a special pouch (aptly named the âmarsupiumâ). Juveniles hatch in a month but remain in the pouch, where they feed on a special fluid. After a couple of weeks, they leave the pouch and go through several molts. It takes the young about a year to reach maturity. Because moisture is crucial to their existence, a large percentage of the young donât survive. Females can produce up to three broods per year. Pillbugs and sowbugs live from 2 to 5 years.
