Sydney loves finding Roly Polys but but she refuses to pick any of them up. Her cousin Elizabeth is not so timid, through Elizabeth's experimentation we have found out that dead Roly Poly's turn white.

We Called Them Pill Bugs
Growing up these little bugs were called "Pill Bugs", flash forward 30 something years and they are now known as "Roly Polys". Joshua and Elizabeth have been checking out Roly Polys for sometime but a few months ago Joshua got Sydney involved in the hunt.
