Baby buffalo leeches (Hirudinaria manillensis) for sale
A great pet if you’re looking for something a bit different to watch swim about and a good conversation starter!
They need to be kept at around 26C in an enclosure which is only half full so they can hang out if the water if they chose to. Using bottled water is best and cheap enough for the amount you’d need. I feed 2-3 times a year for adults but a little bit more often for babies. I chose to feed them from myself which is perfectly safe (research leech therapy for more information). If you’d prefer not to do that then you can obtain animal blood or liver from abattoir or butchers that can be placed in sausage skin or directly into a tub after placing in warm water heating the blood to 36 degrees Celsius. It is vital that the blood you obtain does not have any blood thinners in it, as this can harm your leech. It is also recommended not to use pigs blood or liver, as certain viruses have been known to cause harm.
