Stick Insects hatching 8D

[Andee]

OMG I have baby sticks running around. They are absolutely adorable <3 I wasn't sure if they'd hatch. I finally replaced their bulb the other day and misted the enclosure I keep the eggs in and all of a sudden, pop there are at least four little babies running around. >w< They are so adorable.

Congratz, they are cute, arent they? My little cham loves them as a snac, too bad they need half year to hatch.

Do they really need half a year? It hasn't been near that for me... I wonder if I got some hitch hikers then with this last batch of oak XD

IDK either way they are definitely adorable.

Cool! Can you post a picture of them?

Some sticks take 2-3 months, some 6 months or so, some 8 months or more.

Keep food in front of them, and you will have some tasty morsels!

CHEERS!

Thanks Nick

BTW these hatchlings are from the last batch I got from you, and the leaf insects I just got from you are doing great, eating like little pigs.

I will post a picture of the nymphs by tomorrow ^^ if I can get a good enough one, they are like the size of large ants lol

What kind of stick insects are they?

Indian Stick Insects, sadly I cannot get my camera to focus on them well enough to get a good picture yet.

They are eating tons of oak for such little things though so I imagine I will get a good picture soon ^^
