Update of the Stick List
As I've had some nymphs hatch out this morning, I thought I'd update the list. Just contact me via email or comment if you're interested in buying any ova (I don't sell the phasmids themselves). I am expecting Vietnamese Spiny ova within a few weeks, as the adults began mating today.
The 4 remaining Spectres seem to be very healthy and once they're adult I will interbreed the two blood lines I have. This way, you buyers will be guaranteed 1st generation nymphs and so should not fall foul of sudden nymph death through inbreeding.
I'll warn you once again, that Pink Winged Stick insects are not suitable for children. They are very frail and can spray a chemical when disturbed that, while non-toxic, can irratate the skin and eyes. If you are buying for your children, I reccomend Indian or Annam stick insects as these are very sturdy and do not have any kind of chemical defence.
