Introducing Me & My Future Business

[Ziiggy's Insectarium]

Hello everyone,

My name is Ziiggy and wanted to let everyone know that i am starting an insectarium along side a complete breeding project of a variety of inverts. The insectarium is going to be a zoo of insects all will have uniquely designed enclosures. I plan for it to be a completely interactive experience for the people who go through the zoo and take an interest in insects as a hobby, curiosity, or career. From feeding some insects & arachnids to handling some of the friendlier residents I would like people to leave with a yearning for more. With the breeding part i want to make all the species i carried readily and available and in stock so people can have what ever they want and not have to wait months on end to even have a chance at keeping something. I have chosen to start this endeavor with mantises and am going to work on keeping a breeding a healthy stock of anything i can grab and what the community of insect keepers want.

Thanks for reading my short post​

as soon as possible the only limiting factor right now is the size of my living space but once i get a house and im out of an apartment it should be easier

My Scottish side is definitely happy about that ?

I’m planning on having some ghosts, orchids, and spiny flowers here pretty soon. I’m also going to have some  pseudoacanthops nymphs (really rare) and I might be able to sell you some of those

I have ghost ooths that I can sell if you want one.... They are for sure fertile. Two of them are actually going to the Philadelphia Insectarium.
