New Guinea stick insects (Eurycantha calcarata) are long-lived, sometimes reaching their second birthday! They are very robust and plod along. They are popular in nursery schools and with people who have time to give these stick insects a lot of attention and handling. New Guinea stick insects eat bramble (blackberry) leaves. In the summer they can also eat hazel leaves and rose leaves. New Guinea stick insects drink a lot of water and so it's essential to put a dish of clean cold tap water in the ELC cage. New Guinea stick insects rely on their claws for climbing and so need to hook these around a suitable climbing surface. The holes in the white walls of the ELC cage are the perfect side for New Guinea stick insects to get a foothold. Due to their bulky size, the ELC cage can comfortably house up to six adult New Guinea stick insects (three pairs). Correct ventilation is crucial for this species, the ELC cage is ideal. Never house New Guinea stick insects in netting enclosures because these are too airy and not suitable. The adult female buries her eggs in sand, so we supply a Sand Pit for this purpose. New Guinea stick insects are supplied in pairs (male and female) of medium-sized nymphs.
