-10 Eggs/Eier: 5.-

I sell insects eggs from my own collection. They can get up to 42cm long! (incl. Legs). They are officially the 3. longest insect in the world, which makes them very special and rare to find!

They feed on bramble (DE Brombeeren), which is widely available in (wild and cultivated). They also feed on eucalyptus and oak (DE Eiche). Very easy to care, as any other stick insect, other than it needs a big enclosure (ca 90cm tall). Just change the branches when the leaves dry up and clean the bottom of the cage when it gets very dirty. Even then, there is almost no smell at all.

If you live in an area, where Stick Insects are not native and it would be possible for them to survive outside in the winter (e.g. South Europe), do not to release them in the wild, as they can become invasive. Even one insect is enough to start a pandemic, es they multiply parthenogenetic (without pairing). Make sure to dispose off the dirt accordingly, as it may contain eggs (you can also freeze the dirt at least for 24h before throwing away if your waste material do not get burnt or similar).

Thanks for buying. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me! (English, Deutsch)

Good luck!
