PROJECT PARADISE! - BIGGEST STICK INSECT PROJECT EVER!

[@sophiegove9107]

Fantastic idea. I already grow wild privet in my garden and this year I am experimenting with growing thornless blackberries!

[@TobysExotics]

I literally CANNOT wait 😂

[@mypetsandme9473]

Cool idea with the garden planting 😃

[@codybrown4793]

I cant wait!!!! This is such a good idea 👍💡

[@IncredibleInvertsOtherAnimals]

Love this idea, phasmids are some of my favourite (and most annoying haha) inverts to keep and breed. They are also what got me into invert keeping when I was a kid, and have stuck with me throughout. Hopefully with the introduction of the first world stick insect day last year this will help things too.

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Fingers crossed 🤞. Thanks for watching

[@jaxlodgyy573]

AWESOME not many people mention the AWESOME STICK INSECTS I like them have several different species

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

[@HouseOfBugs]

I wish you all the best with this goal mate fingers crossed it takes off as planned

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Thanks man

[@alexscourfield6258]

This is a great idea, can't wait to see the progress. I hugely agree with the points raised about the problems with the phasmid hobby here in Britain, too many people only breed the common species, when there is such an amazing variety out there, but people don't know it exists, so don't go looking for it. I kept Carausius morosus when I was much younger, and I restarted keeping phasmids in the past few years, but when I see all of the species they have over in Europe, it makes me feel disappointed that breeders over here very rarely offer these species, and even more rarely give much information on them. I wish you the best of luck with project paradise!

[@SephoraBloons]

I keep 9 different species and I'm in the UK. I have kept a species of stick Insect that isn't actually a classified species as well. I believe there is a lot to choose from in the UK. But I agree with you, more people should breed then :(

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Thanks so much for watching! Let's hope the project works!

[@creepycrawlyuk7102]

I know this isn't a big deal as such but I posted a very short clip of my new achrioptera fallax nymphs a couple of days ago and the views have done surprisingly well so I think the interest is there. As for helping with anything, I'm always around if you need anything bud.

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

I'm glad to hear that! Fallax are stunning!

[@ChantalsCritters]

Great video

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Thankyou!

[@CorbinPryceArt]

godspeed

[@joshuastevens5874]

You have pronounced Euonymus correctly. Incidentally, the yellow spotted plant in your front yard is Aucuba japonica, which the PSG reckon some stick insects will eat.

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Thankyou! Yeah I was stoked to see that plant already established when I moved here. I'll certainly experiment with it further too! Perhaps some that aren't known to thrive on it might end up doing well with it 😊

[@stefanspoodsnscovillesharr5177]

Best of luck with project paradise, Cant wait to see the progress 🤘

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Thankyou!

[@nikkislade2466]

Fantastic idea, phasmids need more recognition and better understanding as a hobby...always found them fascinating my self

[@lisabrooksforlove]

Where can I get a live stick insect in Scotland? even eggs of I had to.. I'm guessing it's all legal? I had them as a child and I'm sure my boy would love some

[@ryanpringle1345]

Plenty shops in Scotland sell them! Online is a good option too Dundee has a great wee shop

[@Merrimint]

Extremely excited for Project Paradise! It would be awful to lose the hobbys more rarer species, especially those that have only just been introduced. Can't wait for the preservation to start and definitely loving the merch design with Autolyca herculeana, perfect choice.

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Thanks so much! Stick power 💪

[@SephoraBloons]

I'll aid you. If you need a team member I'll be happy to help. I'm keeping 9 different species, and have kept others in the past. Don't worry about getting back to me now. But whenever your ready, I'm here to help bring the Phasmids back 😃

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Would be a pleasure 😊

[@PeppersnGlowworms]

I love the aspect of food plant cultivation! That should provide a solid basis for the whole thing. Better not tell the "enforcers" of the rules for that plot about roaches getting their share of the veggies grown for "human consumption". In Germany at least, "Kleingartenvereine" (which would be the equivalent of what you have there) are known to be especially pedantic...

[@OldChannelBugRealms]

Yeah they can get strange. Although they did allow someone to run a beehive l plot there once. So I might get lucky
