Pill Bug Can't Unroll

Post by bugfacts101 »

Hi! I found a pill bug that is stuck in a partial unroll, it cannot unroll itself.

It flails it's legs but can't get itself right side up unless I flip it over, then it can balance and walk around a bit in its partial-roll state until it looses it's balance again.

Anything I can do?

Probably expiring. Insects and arthropods don't always expire quickly, they can linger for sometime.
