Phyllium “Rizal” – Perfect for lovers of special species<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Phyllium gantungense “Rizal”<\/b> originates from the Philippines and is one of the particularly fascinating changing leaves in terraristics. The location name “Rizal” refers to the region of the same name in the Philippines, where these animals originally come from. <\/span><\/p>\n

This species is particularly attractive due to its natural leaf appearance and calm behavior. At the same time, it is one of the species that immediately creates a tropical and natural impression in the terrarium. <\/p>\n

Appearance and camouflage<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Like all creeping leaves Phyllium gantungense “Rizal”<\/b><\/span> an impressive camouflage. The animals look amazingly similar to real leaves and blend in almost completely with their surroundings. <\/span><\/p>\n

Particularly striking are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • the broad leaf legs<\/span><\/li>\n
  • the flat body shape<\/span><\/li>\n
  • fine red veins<\/span><\/li>\n
  • natural leaf edges<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The basic coloration usually ranges from strong green to slightly yellowish tones, which makes the animals look particularly lively.<\/p>\n

    Behavior and activity<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

    The animals are mainly nocturnal and usually only actively move around the terrarium in the evening.<\/p>\n

    During the day, they sit quietly between branches or food plants and rely completely on their camouflage. It is precisely this behavior that makes them particularly exciting to observe. <\/p>\n

    Newly hatched young animals are significantly more active and react more sensitively to errors in climate or humidity.<\/p>\n

    Terrarium size and set-up<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

    Suitable for keeping is a high and well ventilated terrarium<\/b><\/span>as the animals need plenty of space to moult.<\/span><\/p>\n

    For smaller groups, the Insektenliebe Phasmid Complete Set<\/b><\/span>is particularly suitable for smaller groups, as it is already optimally adapted to the needs of changing leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n

    For larger groups or adult animals we recommend a Repto Terra Sky Terrarium<\/b><\/span>as it offers sufficient height and at the same time very good air circulation.<\/span><\/p>\n

    The furnishings should be as natural as possible. This is particularly important: <\/p>\n

      \n
    • Stable climbing branches<\/span><\/li>\n
    • leafy forage branches<\/span><\/li>\n
    • free moulting areas<\/span><\/li>\n
    • dry branches for camouflage<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Suitable substrates are either kitchen roll<\/b><\/span>as it is hygienic and practical, or <\/span>forest humus<\/b><\/span> for a more natural setup.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Kitchen roll has the advantage that eggs are particularly easy to recognize and collect.<\/p>\n

      Climate and care<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

      Phyllium gantungense “Rizal”<\/b> requires a stable tropical climate:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Daytime temperature: <\/span>22-28 \u00b0C<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n
      • at night: <\/span>20-22 \u00b0C<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n
      • Humidity: <\/span>70-80 %<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        The terrarium should be lightly sprayed regularly, but direct spraying of the animals should be avoided.<\/p>\n

        With a GLORIA fine sprayer<\/b><\/span> the air humidity can be regulated particularly finely and evenly.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Feeding<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

        The animals accept various food plants:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Blackberry leaves<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Raspberry leaves<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Rose<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Oak<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          The twigs should always be offered fresh and preferably placed in water.<\/p>\n

          Particularly practical here is the cricket box with X-slot from the complete phasmid set<\/b><\/span>as the branches are stable and cannot tip over at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n

          Offspring<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

          The females simply drop their eggs on the ground. There they continue to develop until the young hatch after several months. <\/p>\n

          Breeding is reliable if the temperature and humidity remain stable.<\/p>\n

          Important points on posture<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n
            \n
          • High humidity is important<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Plenty of space required for skinning<\/span><\/li>\n
          • A well-ventilated terrarium is crucial<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Calm and peaceful animals<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Very natural camouflage<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Suitable accessories for your setup<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

            We recommend that you keep them successfully:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Insektenliebe phasmid complete set<\/b><\/span> – perfect basis for smaller groups<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Repto Terra Sky Terrarium<\/b><\/span> – ideal for adult animals<\/span><\/li>\n
            • GLORIA fine sprayer<\/b><\/span> – for controlled humidity<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Spiderwood \/ branches<\/b><\/span> – important climbing structure<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Forest humus<\/b><\/span> – natural substrate<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Springtails<\/b><\/span> – Soil police for hygiene<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              This combination ensures a stable climate and makes it much easier to keep.<\/p>\n

              Conclusion<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

              Phyllium gantungense “Rizal”<\/b> is a beautiful walking leaf that impresses with its perfect camouflage and calm behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n

              This species is ideal for anyone looking for a natural and fascinating terrarium animal that is both elegant and unusual.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
