Smile Indian stick insects

I'm just curious as to how big these grow since mine are now around 4" x.x and are total gannets.
I put a good 30 or so large bramble leaves and a few ivy ones and they are gone in around 2 days lol, I only have 3 too!

If they're 4" I don't think they'll get any bigger, I had Indians years ago and I am sure all the adults were about this size.

If they're adult they'll start laying as well and you'll end up with millions if you're not careful!

from 3 you will probably get like 75 eggs.. very easy to hatch, just takes time. check for eggs on the bottom of the enclosure, they are brown with a little "dot" on the top.
oh! and they are adult when you can see red betwen there two front legs.
