Anyone actually keep these guys?

One person in Sydney had them about a year ago, no longer has them. Currumbin Sanctuary had them 6 mths ago, don't know if they still have.Some of the bird parks and butterfly farms in far Nth Qld probably still have them.

Melbourne Zoo has kept these tiny jewels for many years in their butterfly house. most people don't notice them but if you listen for the chirping they are not hard to locate.

Are they difficult to keep?...would they handle a sydney climate?
