[Tapiiiri]

@Muraz72 : Huge bugs are interesting and sometimes even cute. It's nice to watch how they hunt, eat, mate and interact with each other or humans.

[ConfusingGamer]

[TjReach]

if i saw them in my house id prolly shoot them with my brother airsoft gun and say hello to my little friend

[tubeyou443]

There is one of these in your bed

[Razor5harpe]

Hello, what do you feed them? IS it bramble or oak etc or do you opt for tha apple and carrote etc..

Thanks

[Tapiiiri]

@Razor5harpe : Bramble is ok, I don't know if they'll eat oak. And they like carrots, apples, lettuce, berries... And you can try babyfoods with fruits.

[Razor5harpe]

@Tapiiiri Cool sorry for my crappy spelling i was using my phone!

[LukeSkyscraper]

@Tapiiiri Mine are living happily on a diet of Ivy leaves (not poison Ivy!, the stuff you find growing on the sides of houses). Which is nice as it's ever green and available all year round and it's free and I have a whole wall off the stuff in my back yard.

[Tapiiiri]

@LukeSkyscraper Here we have cold winters so greens are not available all year long. So I had to buy them at store or collect them in summer and put them into my freezer. RIP Pelle and Matias, wish I could have few more stick-insects this summer, but I haven't found yet anyone who would sell me some.

[TheVirtualProHD]

@Razor5harpe I think Bramble,Rose and all sorts of fruit mate

[zudummzum]

UGLY

[comments247]

You are a fing sicko

[zolo1243]

Aww, cute. They have very different personalities :)

[Tapiiiri]

Yeah two females. They had a boyfriend, but he died almost immediately when he arrived. The molt was weird and he got stuck in there and nothing could be done. :c

[reptaryay]

@Tapiiiri like most males in our species.

[Tapiiiri]

I also have 2 dogs and 2 cats, soooo... ;)

And they don't "spike" with their tale, it's just a spike for laying eggs. Females have them and males don't. They never got the chance to make eggs, so now I don't have stick-insects but I have one poecilotheria fasciata female and geckos, snake, bearded dragon...

And this GIRL likes her pets. Very very very much :)

[darian1112]

I seem to recal from talking to someone about these and he said they latch on to whatever ( like your hand) and grip it very tightly and it sticks you, is that true and does it hurt more than a praying mantis pinch?

[Tapiiiri]

Yeah they grab your hand with their "claws", but it really doesn't hurt. Males have longer sticks on their back legs which may feel uncomfortable or even hurt, if it grabs you very hard. These two were females, so they didn't do any harm when I handled them.

My mantis' never pinched me, they were calm but the front legs are sharp and you can feel them. I'm sure that when mantis gets angry and hits with it's claws it hurts more than stick-insects back legs.

[Tapiiiri]

Usually when stick-insects get scared they drop themselves. So when you handle them you must keep your hands near the floor, or the bed or the box where you keep them. Couple of times these females dropped themselves but they landed on their "box" or what you want to call it. So no harm done.

[LisTooSmexy]

@Tapiiiri hey, thanx i was wondering why one of my hyper sticky's tryed to commit suicide! its because it was scared v_v *shakes head impressed*

[wroutjon12345]

cool i have 2 bearded dragons, 6 snakes and 3 geckos

[starfighter36890]

@wroutjon12345 i like geckos :)

[Aeroluvgirl13]

they get kinda scary dont u think?

[dixiedoo8]

thats so cool im gunna get a walking stick maby alot and some butterflys = )

[MustNotRead]

you need to kill those things - immediately!

[lightsaberboy08]

have they ever spiked you you know they got a pointy thing at the end of there tale

[PerKristian93]

Lol.. Boy names for girls? :P

[MovieN00b]

yeah wtf? right xD

[mypsp310]

he or she is not an idiot if you dont have the room for a dog or cat this is what you get, this is what im getting since i dont have space for a dog or a cat

[Landonwk]

i think its cool that some people like insects lol, personally im scared of them :P

[chromesthesia]

those are cute.

I want one.

[17Revolution76]

You sir, are an ignorant bastard! Why would you call someone an idiot for having an interest in insects? They eat leaves and spend most of their lives hanging upside...

[KATAFRAKT]

...or get married.

[zarrurer123]

wow....can they sting u or something? cause the stinger on the tip of the end looks really painful if it jabs you...

[Tapiiiri]

They only grabbed my hand and because they're stick-insects, it might feel a little uncomfortable.

They don't sting and these were females, so the "sting" is just for laying eggs :)

[Azoozano]

this is weird cuz they are on your keyboard

[theprozackid]

i used to hav the same!!! they are kool though id be aggro! cuz of then leaving their leaves everywhere lolx

[Tapiiiri]

The other one is used to handling, so only one of them gets mad when touched.

[nighthunte29]

lol, mine does that its still a nymph, about L3 and the girl runs really fast if you touch her!
