A spiny leaf insect changes color primarily as a form of camouflage, allowing it to blend in with its surroundings and evade predators. This ability to change color helps it mimic the appearance of leaves or twigs, enhancing its survival in natural habitats. Additionally, color changes can be influenced by factors such as temperature, humidity, and the insect's mood or stress levels.

spiny leaf insect
I do! Only if it's contained.
you have to buy them really young and give them a full diet of ROSE leaves for the rest of their lives :) :) :)
The bug that has spikes on its back is called a spiny leaf insect.
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
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.)
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.
