Not familiar with those guys but be sure to research each species before feeding. Some phasmids have nasty defensive sprays or spikes. The thicker guys, like adult Australian sticks can put up quite a fight - I only feed the nymphs. Females aussies very quickly get too big and spikey!

some of those photos look like pets not feeders.

Oh but most of them are pets 😂. Thank you anyways! I feed them only with those who dont have any spikes on them. And none of them have defensive juices!
 
You are so lucky!!!!! They are illegal here in CA. We do have a few stick looking ones but not that impressive. When I was a bad boy, I would order from other countries and did work with a few leaf's and Thorny (wow! can the females produce eggs). They are so cool but can be very destructive in the wrong environment. Keep us updated and more pics please.
 
Nice collection!
Found this ginormous stick on google.. I WANT IT!!!
If you feel like something might be crawling on your back, there might be.. hee hee hee
