Lovely shots RM

Alby - right- it's only the pill bug type ones that can do this- tend to be much rounder shelled. Most of the common woodlice are much flatter and can't rollup.

Maybe he wanted his tummy rubbed like a puppy does Not shots. Am I right in think not all woodlice can roll up ?

these Common Rough Woodlice cant roll up - indeed they seem to be less mobile all round:
