What should I do? Don't worry. Masks are available from many retailers which will suppess some of the symptoms of Phasmid allergies, including most of those concerning vomiting and stomach cramps. |

He tells me that they can tell the gender of them and they give them appropriate names. My daughter awaits weekends with some trepidation. She's afraid the precious pets might die while in the family's care. Joy |

19 Mar 04 - 06:48 PM (#1141305) Subject: RE: BS: Stick Insects From: Liz the Squeak I used to have 2 stick insects. We couldn't tell what sex they were but they obviously could. They laid copious eggs which we managed to hatch some a few times, then we had about 60 stick insects. The budgie got one that got out. Didn't think much of it as a perch and even less as a snack.

20 Mar 04 - 12:35 AM (#1141467) Subject: RE: BS: Stick Insects From: Shanghaiceltic I did but my recipes would be Chinese. Stir frying with a bit of garlic, onion and ginger (the three Chinese treasures) would still leave you with the crunch and add flavour. Dead easy to pick up with chopsticks too ;-) |

Please send photocopies of your insects to the usual address. European Law Change After intense lobbying, the European Union has finally agreed to recognise Pashmids as insects instead of the previous classification as fruits. This ends decades of misunderstanding. These are really enlightening , John. Thanks so much!!! :)) A |
