There's also a couple of good ones of the babies hatching.

BUT beware the one called 'a guy tries to touch his praying mantis', unless you want a good laugh!! :w00t: :cheesy:

The sack I found is a brighter green, so I think it may have been recently laid.

Sunray, I have heaps of eggs and could part with a few. However I have no idea how (legally) I can get them from Tas to NSW?

Hi All,

Does anyone have any spiny leaf insect eggs they would be willing to post to the NT. I have been told that the eggs can be posted and I would be very willing to pay for postage and eggs.
Cheers, Teig

There's a mob called the Australian Insect Farm located in Innisfail here in FNQ. Look them up and give them a call. :thumbup:
