DAMN Scuzzi those things look wicked.... :thumbs-up: yeah i was wondering the same thing what do they eat?
They eat leaves. They seem to prefer rose leaves but also eat brambles and privot and the odd small child.
OMG they are so cute!!!! Do they move like praying Mantis', Mantises, Mantisi? lol whatever :thumbs-up: I waaant some. Cool to watch and I bet upkeep is minimal. I have to get a new animal every six months, it's my fix, so the easy keepers are always desired! I have 3 hamsters coming up on 3-4 years old so I will soon have some aquarium space! I know I know, I sound cruel but they don't live that long! They have lived healthy and enriched lives so far :thumbs-up: And 6 MONTHS!?!?! Thats a long ass incubation period. Tell us how they incubate, i'm curious.....and do they require special heat, humidity ect? I am interested!
These are proper stoner pets. Ive just caught one molting. Its decided to do it at the top of the cage. Its now hanging from its skin by its tail. Its a big drop. Will he bash his head in? lol ive wasted 20 minutes already watching, i even filmed it for a bit :thumbsup:
These are reall specialise pets Canna. A real fuck on! I had to buy the eggs (20 of them) on E Bay for £2. Then i had to wait for them to come. When they did i had to put some damp kitchen roll in the bottom of a tuper ware box and seal them in there till them hatch 6 months later. No heat no nothing. You have to change the paper every now and then when it gets moldy. Once they hatch they go in the vivirium with some branches and leaves.
Their an austrialin stick insect that lives in the northern rain forest or i this case a tank in my computer room There a little doc for you
Just watched the biggest girl molt. Shes busy eating her own skin now. 2 or 3 more molts and she'll be fully grown i think. Ill give her a chance to finish up and harden her skin and take a pic. Shes got to be over 5 inches head to tail now :5bullwhip:
Those are awesome bugs Skuzz! Do they let you just pick them right up, or do you have to chase them around the tank when you want to grab one out?
