Has anyone got any stick insects or anything similar? My sons nursey has been askin for something for the nursey for a nature project. Already had cola in there for a visit and she went down a storm. If anyone has or knows of any that are low maintenance like caterpillars or the like please let me know.
Thanks tk72 |

Giant land snails are great - cheap and nice and easy to care for too  |

| I would go with Gals. When my sons were in primary school they had some gals and the kids took it in turns to take the snails home for the weekend they all loved having the repsonsability of looking after an animal. Thinking about it its probably where our obsession with reptiles and alike started :) |

| not sure if they can be posted. they are free to a good home as there really isn't the space for them and i think the tech would quite happily let you have them all! if you want i can find out if they can be posted |

| Hi lupi. Sorry not Bren on for a few days. Thanks for the offer but found some snails a mile away from us and they came in a tank with a full set up. Nursery loves them and they are waiting on names. My son called one squishy and we think the top name for the other one is Linda yes Linda the snail. Don't know where the name came from but looks like a winner. |
