| Build your own kit in 3
easy steps... 1. Get the Bug Studio Professional Package 2. Choose which stick insects you want 3. Complete the secure on-line order form or phone 01949 842446 It's easy and you can choose whether to have one, two or three species of stick insect in one cage! |
| Step one...
The Bug Studio Professional package includes everything you need to look after your stick insects properly. The BSP cage is tall (46cm, 18" high) so that the stick insects have plenty of room to grow (they slide downwards out of their old skins). It has four see-through sides so you can see the insects clearly. Instead of being solid, the sides are full of specially made holes so that the insects can get a good foothold to climb (they hook their claws around the holes), The holes also act as air-holes, allowing lots of ventilation through the cage. Ten Liners (pink or blue - you choose) are included FREE! Just place one Liner on the floor of the cage and replace it weekly, to keep the stick insects in clean conditions. Push the bramble stems into the Sprig Pot to keep fresh. And read more about stick insect care in the best-selling book "Keeping Stick Insects" by Dorothy Floyd. Price £39.18 |

| Step two...
Choose which stick insects you'd like! All eat bramble (blackberry) leaves, all are easy to look after and they are all harmless and safe to handle. Stick insects like company and different varieties can be mixed together. It's important they aren't overcrowded and so only keep a maximum of eight in a cage. All stick insects are dispatched when medium-sized; this means they are half-grown and are the best size to travel. They are dispatched by express delivery, this costs £8. Live arrival is guaranteed. |

The BSP cage is tall (46cm, 18" high) so that the stick insects have plenty of room to grow (they slide downwards out of their old skins). It has four see-through sides so you can see the insects clearly. Instead of being solid, the sides are full of specially made holes so that the insects can get a good foothold to climb (they hook their claws around the holes). The Ventilation Control Panel attaches to the three outer sides of the BSP and must be used for the stick insects listed below because these stick insects prefer less-ventilated conditions. Ten Liners (pink or blue - you choose) are included FREE! Just place one Liner on the floor of the cage and replace it weekly, to keep the stick insects in clean conditions. Push the bramble stems into the Sprig Pot to keep fresh. And read more about stick insect care in the best-selling book "Keeping Stick Insects" by Dorothy Floyd. Price £41.38 |
