O: !! Our female P. Regius has not only laid a sac... but we have eggs with legs! So it's our first successful pairing!

Will definitely have some we'll keep back for future projects, but it looks like we might have some cute spooder babies available in the near future!

🌿 This season's Nymphs are starting to hatch, so keep your eyes peeled for listings for those over the weekend.

🌿 We have recently paired our Jumping spiders! Last year's sacs were unfortunately infertile but we have our fingers crossed for this year! Updates to follow...

To care for the eggs, place them on a paper towel in a container with adequate ventilation (to stop mould growth). Lightly mist the eggs so that the paper towel is damp but NOT soaking wet. Re-mist when the paper towel has dried out and repeat until the eggs hatch!

Little update shot of our new Jungle Nymphs! 🌱✨

We also have a couple more commonly known as the Malaysian Jungle Nymph! When these are full grown they’re one of the heaviest insects known ✨

I’ll make sure to post more pictures of these when they start to develop more!

New species added to our little breeding project! Sungaya Inexpectata or more commonly known as the Sunny Stick Insect 💚

Apologies for being quiet lately! We sadly lost our adult female after laying her second egg sac but it looks like the pairing didn’t take as they were both infertile sacs.

We have a couple of juveniles we’re raising at the moment and the stick insects are just starting to lay eggs!

Will post and update when we have more stock available 🙂

✨✨ U P D A T E ✨✨

Due to the festive season fast approaching we've removed our current listings for the p. philippinicum (leaf insects) - a bunch of orders are ready to go!

Over the new year we will be releasing an updated website with a store page to purchase our leafies and (hopefully!) jumping spiders, more info to come soon!

ALSO we have a few ✨ Shinies ✨ that have come from our philippinicum eggs! (NOT FOR SALE)

My last first generation leafy girl has sadly passed. She outlived her other sisters by a good few months though, so she's had an amazing run - 15 months!

Currently rearing some of her (and her sister's) babies up so we should have some more adults in the coming months!

Still have some nymphs and eggs available too! Feel free to DM for more info

And here’s my gorgeous giganteum lady looking right up at the camera! ✨👑

We also have some new arrivals! Just little nymphs right now but I’m sure they’ll grow up to be just as gorgeous as the leafies!
