Hi, I just got some babies they were giving away at out local pet shop and have been trying to find photos on the internet to see what I have too. Do the wings look big enough to enable it to fly? because only the males can actually fly. Also, if you have a female, you don't need a mate as they are capable of laying eggs without one!

Both male and female have wings but males can only fly a shorter distance. Are you looking for a mat for breeding purposes becuase spiney leaf females dont need males to reproduce

The care sheet from the green scorpion is the best one I have found. Spiny Leaf insects live for 2yrs, only the males fly, so you have a female & "they do make great pets" . Give them fresh leaves every few days.Gum and wattle are the ones mine eat most but if you keep track of which leaves come from which tree you won't have too many probs. They shed too. That is pretty cool to watch. When the shed is complete you will wonder how she ever fit into thae cast off! Enjoy your stickies python blue.

not really, they are quite a stocky species anyway and they constantly lay. Its not like a Preying mantis that gets fat then lays its egg case, phasmids lay about 10-20 eggs per day. She should start laying within a week.
