Lord howe island phasmid congregation behaviuor

[hornet]

Just snapped a few pics of a bunch of nymphs displaying the congregation behaviour typical to this species and species in the eurycantha group. These guys go out and feed at night then every morning they go down to the bottom front let hand corner on the enclosure to hide for the day, same spot every time.

queensland small leaf fig and other similar species, they dont seem to like the harder leaved species but the love the species with the soft fleshy leaves
