When a helping hand is needed!

One of our female Macleays was mid shed on the enclosure floor. Luckily I was in the nick of time to hold her upside down by her old skin & she was able to finish her moult successfully!

Sorry we have been quiet recently guys!

Our English Springer has given birth to 5 beautiful puppies. Due to complications with their birth, she underwent major surgery. She is now back home & on the road to recovery. 🙏🏼

We are taking a little break from posting orders to focus on our new mum & her puppies. 🐶

All outstanding orders have been fulfilled & we will still be available to answer messages.

It’s that time of year again ⚠️

⚠️ CHECK YOUR BRAMBLE ⚠️

New growth contains high levels of sugars. This can be TOXIC for Stick Insects, Leaf Insects & Katydids. Snip the new shoots off.

✨ TIP ✨
To check if new leaves are safe to eat, feel underneath the leaf along the central spine. If the spikes are hard, the leaf is good for eating. If they are soft.. snip them off!

Every new leaf should measure 4cm or larger to be consumed.

Snipping off new growth also helps keep the older leaves fresher for longer ✂️🍃

Anarchodes annulipes 🌸

Anarchodes annulipes 🌸 Just look at the colour of them wings!! 🧚🏼‍♀️ These aren’t on the website yet, but nymphs & eggs will be available soon. Postage prices have gone up slightly too due to Royal Mail putting their prices up. (Don’t worry not by much!) 📫 www.walkingwithstickinsects.co.uk

Siliquofera Grandis → Giant Hooded Katydid 🍓 Sorry we haven’t posted in a while guys!! DID YOU KNOW❓ Adult Giant Hooded Katydid Females reach a whopping 14-15cm! Adult Males are smaller, but still a good 10-12cm in size. It takes 4 months for this species to reach adulthood. 2 months after maturing, the Females will start to lay eggs! Females do need substrate to lay their eggs in, ideally 10cm deep of Coco fibre or similar. A 45x45x60 enclosure is suitable for 4 adults, the bigger the better! Plenty of space & fresh food is key to success with this species or cannibalism is likely. Provide high humidity, especially for young nymphs. Food: Bramble (Blackberry bush), Eucalyptus, Oaks, Hazel, Hawthorn & Fruit. Apple & Strawberry being their favourite. 🍎 Nymphs available looking for homes 🏡💚

What a beauty 🌻 Phyllium philippinicum → Leaf Insect . . . . . #smallbusiness #supportsmallbusiness #walkingleaf #stickinsects #insectworld #invertebrate #nature #abugslife #walkingsticks #insects #insect #nofilter #leafinsect #leafinsects #photooftheday
