It varies between the Stick Insects like a Spiny Leaf the females live to 18 months, males 1Yr.
the males have no spines and they have wings when matured and the females have spines and have miniature wings. its a bit strange that they are called spiny leaf insects if the male isn't even spiny! Hope this helps! Regards I'm not telling my name to a machine

They can grow about 20cm! I have one and its only a couple months old and its about 4cm.
First of all if your wondering whats the best way to speed up their egg laying rate, first you will need a wide enough tank for your female and male to grow. put the tank/cage into a sunny spot, but make sure its not two hot or to cold for them. When your female spiny leaf insect has enough sun she tends to swell up with eggs, increasing the population of her brood. Now that she has laid eggs, you carefully place the eggs into a container with either river sand, soild, or some moist tanbark mixed with soil, make sure the container has a lid with a small slit like a money box for air. when you are placing the eggs if you take a close look there is a small cap on the top of the egg, try to keep that side from going into the dirt. Now taking care of these eggs requires patience, first of all the eggs require a mist spray of water approximately once ever 2-3 days. Make sure the dirt/soil is not dry but moist. Now the time period for the eggs, the baby leaf insects will hatch at 4-6 months or in some longer time periods 1-2 years. This usually depends on the care of your eggs. The leaf insects eggs also require natural day light, or if your in a darker place then you can have a lamp for the eggs. leave the lamp on four a natural day light times. Care for your leaf insects, your spiny leaf insects eucalyptus or gum leafs will require a mist spray of water 1-2 times a day. if the female and male do not mate then the eggs will only be females, but if they do then you will hatch both genders.
Spiny leaf insects and stick insects can coexist in the same habitat, as they have similar care requirements, including temperature, humidity, and diet. However, it's important to ensure that their specific needs align and that they have enough space to avoid competition and stress. Care should also be taken to monitor for any signs of aggression or territorial behavior. Overall, while they can live together, successful cohabitation requires careful management.
Yes, spiny leaf insects (Timema) have a niche market in the pet trade, particularly among insect enthusiasts and educators. Their unique appearance and relatively easy care requirements make them appealing for terrariums. Additionally, they can serve educational purposes in schools to teach about insect biology and ecology. However, their commercial significance is limited compared to more popular pets.
No. The only insect that can do that is the Spiny leaf insect. (I'm pretty sure but other stick insects might be able to do so too.)
