    Our stick insect arrived safely. When we unpacked him he was happily munching on his leaves, which were still really fresh. He’s pretty cute.

    SPINY LEAF INSECT (EXTATOSOMA TIARATUM)

    Posted by Mitch mcclelland on 4th Nov 2019

    The insect was in good health, however, the container was broken leaving the insect outside of its tupaware container packageing, moving freely in the box the package is meant to be shipped in. It could have been injured this way and had no access to moisture or leaves as it was in transit. Response from Minibeast Wildlife: Sorry to hear that your package was damaged - it would have been better if you had notified us of this incident via email, rather than in a review since the issue was not a result of anything we had or hadn't done. Unfortunately we have no control over how Australia Post treats packages, however we do assume them to be robustly handled and pack them accordingly; we use an excess of insulating padding to securely pack the container within the box, and include food and moisture. In over 15 years of dispatching, it is extremely rare that we have packages damaged in this way. Good to hear it still arrived in a healthy state.

    SPINY LEAF INSECT (EXTATOSOMA TIARATUM)

    We have now purchased 4 healthy happy spiny leaf insects. They are a great low maintenance pet that my kids look after and read to every day. When my son's teacher saw our new pets she asked if we could purchase some babies that the class could look after during the week to learn more about insects and to watch them grow. I have been surprised by how much fun they have been for our family.

    My preschool students have learnt so much from the info sheet you provided and having a minibeast in the classroom. Thanks for making it so easy.
