Diapherodes gigantea

For the chameleon keeper with larger chameleons such as Mellers and Parsons, Diapherodes gigantea is the answer. D. gigantea is a beautiful lime green stick insect from rain forests in the Caribbean Islands. They are slow moving, and not covered with spines, making them very easy to handle, and bright green elicits a strike response.

Phyllium philippinicum Leaf Insect

The philippinicum leaf insect is one of the easiest of the leaf insects to raise. Similar to the Australian ET stick insect, it is slow moving, and easy to handle. The females grow to about 4-inches long, and are quite bulky. I feed them mostly on wild blackberry leaves.

Extatosoma tiaratum (ET), Australian Stick Insect

ET is one of the best stick insects for children to handle because it is a slow mover. Easy to feed, blackberry and oak leaves are the best choice. The ET is one of the bulkiest stick insects around.

The Vietnamese Stick Insect has a 6” body length and up to 8” in the resting position with front legs extended. All the sticks in the USA are female and parthenogenic. They have a very high reproduction and hatch rate. They can be fed blackberry, oak, rose, raspberry, hazel, and ivy leaves.

Sipyloidea sipylus, Madagascan Pink Wing Stick Insect

The Pink Wing stick insect is similar to the Indian stick insect in size and color. The differences are that the Pink Wing can fly as an adult, the nymphs are bright green, and are quicker moving. They feed on blackberry leaves and can be housed with Indian stick insects.

Indian Stick Insects

The Indian Stick Insect is the most common stick insect raised for study in universities, classrooms, and as a feeder. Adults reach 5 inches, and the Indian is very soft, so chameleon’s can take a bigger Indian Stick easily. Nymphs and adults can be housed together; they eat Ivy, blackberry, and romaine.

Sunguya inexpectata

Sunguya inexpectata also known as the Sunny Stick insect, originates in the Philippian island of Luzon. There are variations in color with each molt, and my culture goes from dark brown to green to beige, with beautiful white striping down the back and on the legs. Females are larger and more striking than the males. Sunguya inexpectata is parthenogenetic, needing no males to reproduce, but my colony is fertilized by males. Sunguya inexpectata get to a 3 to 4-inch length, and are handled easily.
