I will definately get in touch, thanks for the link to his blog - some good reading so far : )
Just filled hubby in on what's happening and kinda forgot he's done entomology for 3 years lol so am picking his brain too : p
He said he'll pull out some of his old books for me - such a good hubby : D

What did they say? I know they are/were breeding the Spiny katydid Phricta sp. A very nice, big and spectacular species.

that wasnt the australian insect farm, that is minibeasts wildlife from melbourne, run by alan henderson, jack from the AIF only really breeds phasmids, beetles and burrowing roaches
