Sticky - My stick insect

Unforantly he passed away before coming onto this forum. We think it was due to a bad molt. I have looked into getting another, but at this moment in time, I haven't the time, so it will be a on going progress of getting on.

I think these guys are incredible. So different and unique. Didn't know you could keep them as pets. I have a photo somewhere of a stick insect that was sitting on one of our cacti outside for many days. I will try to locate it and post it in this section for stick insect lovers to see.

Over here you can keep most insects as pets. The Indians are the cheapest, and only cost around 50p

Yeah my college breed them, and there were millions they would keep escaping from their meshed enclosure .. and we would be searching for calcium or crestie diet and a mini indian stick insect would appear.

wow sticky was soo cute.. RIP

haha, we had that happen but with the Hissing cockroaches :S

And thanks - yes RIP

I really really want some hissing cockroaches, but my mom hates them and won't let me

I don't mind them, but could never own one. The only insects I would have is a stick insect (that doesn't fly or shot acid from it's bum) or a spider

I want a praying mantis.. but I probably wouldnt handle it because i've seen the bites some of the larger species can do. I want a leafy stick inserts.. and I'm obsessed the Giant african land snails

That is so cool. Sorry he/she is no longer with you.

We had so many Giant african lands snails. Ended up giving loads away, they just breed like Crazy! and yes I want a Praying matius too, but they can fly so that puts me off.

Thanks and no worries Smsaras2
