You can't they are asexual. most of them are female an the males don't com around very often. Plus if you do get a male the female will try to fight with him to earn dominance.

ADD:

Not all species of stick insect are asexual. Many species need a mate to fertilise the eggs so males are just as common as females. A male stick insect, just like most insects, are always much smaller than the females. Females are usually broader and longer while the males are usually slender and shorter.

Also the males have a little bump on the end of their tails.

Male stick insects have a slightly blunter tail where as females even though they have a wide tale have a small sharp point that is harmless.Some stick insects can breed without a male such as the Indian abatory stick insect because males are often very rare.

ADD:

Male and female stick insects also differ greatly in size. The females are much larger than the male and are very solid-looking and are often quite broad. The males are often slender and delicate-looking and are always much shorter than the female.

How do you tell a male ladybug from a female ladybug?

It is very difficult to tell the difference between a male and female ladybug. Male ladybugs (or ladybirds) tend to be slightly smaller than females. Contrary to popular belief, the spots do not indicate whether these insects are males or females. However, the spots do fade somewhat as the insect grows older. Males and females are also the same colour.
