Depends on the age and size of the animal, and which species you mean - there are several. They are vegetarians though... check out Pet Bugs.com Northern Walkingstick Care Sheet (http://www.petbugs.com/caresheets/D-femorata.html).

I've got a bunch of them. We feed rasberry leaves through the summer, and any dark, leafy veg during the winter.

I have a small colony of annam sticks (2 adults plus 10-15 babiesin large kritter keeper) that I'm looking to sell (if you're in victoria) for cheap. But yes, they are VERY interesting things.. www.sies.prv.pl is a good site for it.

I feed them the same as I do the millipedes for the most part but less fruit pieces.
