🍃 GIANTS IN THE MAKING! 🍃

Check out one of our Giant Malaysian Leaf Insects (Pulchriphyllium giganteum)! 😍

It might already look pretty impressive, but this one is still only a youngster and has plenty of growing left to do! 🌿

Their incredible leaf-like camouflage is amazing — right down to the veins, colours and slightly ragged edges that make them look just like a real leaf. 🍂

And here’s something really cool about them… 👀
🥚 They can reproduce through parthenogenesis! This means females can lay fertile eggs without needing a male, producing female offspring that are essentially genetic clones of their mum!

Because of this, males can be quite rare to come across compared with females.

As they mature, the females in particular can become seriously BIG! 😲

We’ll definitely be sharing updates as these little leaves continue to grow! 🍃

💚 Just look at that colour! 💚

Our Emerald Cockroache (Pseudoglomeris magnifica) have to be some of the most stunning roaches around! 😍🪳

That incredible metallic emerald-green colour almost doesn’t look real, especially when the light catches them. ✨

They’re a brilliant species to keep and definitely one that stands out in any collection. We could sit and watch these guys all day!

Who else is addicted to unusual invertebrates? 👀💚

🐹 Meet Marshmallow! 🤍

Thought we’d give the spiders a day off and let Marshmallow take over the page 😂

Just look at that little face! 😍 She might not have eight legs, but she’s definitely still part of the Animals Addictive family.
Who else has a soft spot for hamsters? 🐹❤️

Let’s see your little furry friends in the comments! 👇

🕷️ Golden Blue Leg Baboon – Harpactira pulchripes 🕷️

Just look at those colours! 😍
This is our Golden Blue Leg Baboon Female and definitely one of those tarantulas that looks even better in person. Those golden markings against the blue legs are absolutely stunning!
Like most baboons though… probably best admired with your hands OUT of the enclosure 😂
Who else keeps one of these? And if you don't — would you? 👀👇
