New catapillar for me! Tis the season. So far i have a oleander catapillar(wasp moth) and a luna catapillar(luna moth). I found this one on the side of the road today. It seemed about 4th instar. I brought it home and put it in the oleander container for a hour or so while i went shopping. Got home and readied the 2 liter for it and it seems as though my lil guy was in its 5instar and is now cacooned. I put the oleander over into the 2liter and im waiting a few days while the cacoon sets before moving it into a 10gal.(big moth, big tank).

Not too thrilled about it cacooning in the little bowl...i hate moving cacoons.
