Large Species of Thorny Katydid from South Africa…
Currently being housed in a megaplast arboreal, with cork bark and fed on beetle jelly, dry food and lots of baby corn although will eat almost anything by all accounts.
Another fun fact – they can spray blood up to 6cm as a defense mechanism and also cover themselves in their own vomit if all else fails… so don’t try and eat one.
Will turn canabalistic when lacking protein so best kept singularly
