Great starter kit
The enclosure is bigger than I thought and will be excellent. The spiny leaf is a good size and quite active and having an easy to follow care guide is great. Very happy with purchase.

Spiny!
The brand new spiny leaf insect had been active and feeding heaps! She doesn’t have a name yet but there’s plenty of personality ahead, so lots of room to find one, and she seems happy in her enclosure. Thanks MW.

Spiny leaf insect mini kit
So excited to receive our little friend 2 days after the postage day (Victoria). Lizzo arrived alive and well and has been thriving ever since. The handy pop up house and spray bottle made an instant habitat and QR code with care tips made everything so easy!

Spiny leaf order
I ordered the spiny leaf mini-kit as a birthday gift. Unfortunately, the insect arrived deceased. I rang minibeasts to inform them and they were shocked to discover how long the insect had actually been in transit considering it only had a short journey to travel. They were incredibly kind and replaced the insect. Actually, personally delivering 2 new insects that afternoon. Both are thriving and have made fantastic pets. Thank you so much.

Super impressed!
Very happy with purchase. My nephews absolutely adore their new pets. Sandy and Spiney are being well cared for and are enjoying their new home. They were well packed and arrived safely. I was a little concerned as AusPost delayed delivery by a day, however, the insects were safe and sound in their box with enough food and space. They settled into their new enclosure nicely. It’s a great size. Thank you!
