Stick insects are one of the most fascinating of the insects chameleon keepers use as feeders. Whether you use them as feeders or, like the rest of us, find that we’d rather keep them as pets, you’ll find out here how to take care of them. From the bizarre Australian Stick Insect to the huge Green Bean Insect to the cryptic leaf insect, you’ll find no end to the wonder of stick insects! . .
Nick mentioned a walking stick “ova” exchange group, though there are many other insects represented here!
