Phasmids

Owned & raised by our youngest daughter.

​We keep all of our phasmids at around 20 - 22*C

All of our breeding groups consist of both males and females - all eggs offered for sale will come from mated females.

Not all of our phasmids are shown here yet as we have eggs from 7 new imported species waiting to hatch
- hopefully we will be adding lots more beautiful photos to this page in 2023


Andropromachus scutatus 'Tam Dao" - PSG 328
Vietnam
Adult Size: females: 6 - 7cm / males 5cm
Food Plants: Ferns & Ivy.
​This species really likes a shallow dish (or even a plastic milk bottle top) with some water gel crystals as they will return to the same place regularly for a drink.  Nymphs are safer with crystals but adults are quite safe with a 5mm water depth.
Females are usually a lovely green & black and the males are also nice to look at with their black, brown & red colours.


Clonaria conformans - PSG 225
Thailand
Adult Size: females 9cm / males 6cm
Food Plants: Brambles.
A graceful looking & peaceful species that sticks it's grass seed shaped eggs to the sides of the cage.
Going through a range of creams & greens as they mature makes them a good species if you prefer something colourful.


Extatosoma Tiaratum 'Innisfail' - PSG 9a
Australia
Adult Size: females 12cm / males 9cm
​Food Plants: Brambles, Eucalyptus
An extremely large and hungry species, the winged males are usually shades of brown but the females can vary from pale green to rich red-brown (or even the lichen morph colour form) depending on cage backgrounds & leaf colours. They will gradually try to blend in with their environment from hatching as they shed & mature.


Nui Chua rabaeyae - PSG 395
Vietnam
Adult Size: females 10cm / males 6cm
Food Plants: Brambles & Hypericum
Males from this species will stay mated to a chosen female for the rest of their lives. Depending on environment & sunlight, this species can be quite vibrant with the beautiful green & purple colouring.


Peruphasma schultei - PSG 270
Peru
Adult Size: females 55mm / males 45mm​
​Food Plants: Privet
​A small but stunning species. They will use a small dish filled with water gel crystals on a daily basis.


Pseudophasma subapterum - PSG 299
Venezuela
Adult Size: females 6cm / males 4.5cm
Food Plants: Privet & Plantains
A small but very pretty species, we keep a cardboard egg box with the front taken off in the bottom of the cage for them to use as a cave which they all seem to enjoy.
