Where to find leaf insect food online?

[scott52019]

I ordered leaf insects from Nick Barta, however, I'm having a hard time finding their food. The local nurseries I called said it was too early for those plants. What should I do? Where can I find plants that leaf insects eat? Having a really hard time.

I feed my leaf insects evergreen oak. I get the young leaves, and feed it to them. Usually people feed them blackberry, but that doesn't last all year. Certain leaf insects will eat eucalyptus too.

Also when getting fresh cuttings I make a vase, out of a plastic container with a lid, and drill holes in the lid about the size of the sticks I'll be getting. And put fresh water in it.

My leaf insect ate a little romaine, it was beautiful. My Cham at me him as soon as he realized it wasn't just a leaf, I had to put the insect in the roof of the cage and let him wander so my Cham would notice.
