so great
arrived exactly on schedule. I love having two different sized females as it helps tell them apart and I look forward to watching them grow. Stick insects are just the best!

Fantastic, must buy!
So i ordered the little guy, they emailed letting me know the purchase had gone in and all was great, however the post office decided to take their time in delivering, the post office took 7 days to send my package here, and if i hadn't called minibeast for assistence i reckon i would still be waiting, let me tell you, they get things done, i was worried for the poor little guy, i was sure he was gonna be gone when i oppened the box but happy days he was okay and still had food to last ages, best customer service and a great company. Really happy!

Amazing Spiny Leaf Insect
Our new stick insect arrived healthy and well packaged. She settled into her new enclosure and started eating almost immediately. Just over two weeks after she arrived she moulted and it was fascinating to watch. I've already found that holding her, helps people get over a fear of bugs. Thank you Minibeast Team for sending us another amazing and healthy invertebrate.

Great pets, great service
We have ordered Spiny leaf Insects a number of times in the last 8 years. My recent purchase of 4 Insects (for the school I work at), reminded me how much our family enjoyed keeping them in the past. They are great, low maintenance pets! Ordering from Minibeast Wildlife is always a pleasure and I'm always impressed by the care taken to deliver the Insects safely to their destination.

bugs bugs bugs!
Got my leaf insects safely in the mail just 2 days after ordering. There was a bonus insect as a gift. All info on care and feeding was easily accessed on the website. My grandson is thrilled with his birthday present. Would always recommend minibeasts wildlife to everyone wanting a special pet or just advice on bugs

Awesome insect!
Our stick insect arrived a couple of weeks ago and she is very fast at climbing. We are trying hard to find the leaves she likes here in Canberra. She seems to be thriving on whatever we find her. From Matilda, age 8 (Sticku was a birthday present) (Australia Post mucked up the delivery and for a few days there was back and forthing between us, Deanna and Aus Post - Deanna was fantastic, exemplary service. Thank you!)
