Product Description

Is it a twig or an insect? Well, both, kind of - it's an insect that looks just like a twig and acts like one too! Raise Indian Stick Insects with this complete kit. Feed them bramble, ivy or privet and watch them shed their skins and grow 6 to 10cm. Watch them mimic a stick swaying in the wind. Kit includes 30cm tall spring up habitat, voucher for Indian Stick Insect eggs, brush to make transferring easy and our informative instruction guide

Think this is a great idea and have had the butterfly set would just like to add that amazon do not make it clear that you have to pay another £[] for the eggs so beware if you are buying for a gift. I opened mine and pre-ordered the eggs before I gave the gift.

I bought this after loving the butterflies! The butterflies are still my out and out favourite and I'll be buying catterpillars for the third time next year and probably long after my daughter has lost interest! I'm enjoying this though, but so far only two stick insects have hatched. I'm planning on researching creating a proper tank for them as you have to keep them, you can't release them like the butterflies. Great product, I really recommend it - and the butterflies.

Stick Insect Kit 21 Aug 2010
By Treena
Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
We bought this kit for our daughter (aged 7) and she loves it.
A voucher comes inside for the eggs that get sent through the post.
Waiting for the eggs to hatch was a good experience, as they hatched over several days.
Its amazing when they hatch just how big they are and how they fitted in the eggs!
Overall a fantastic learning experience and fun for all.
Would Recommend.

We were very excited about this present and ordered it ahead of the summer holidays because we had read that you have to send off for the eggs separately. Read more

Great...but..
The stick insects themselves are great. We had a couple die, seemingly because they didn't manage to kick the eggs off themselves, so the next one that was stuck to its egg I... Read more
