| My set-up, a small reptile terrarium on a glass shelf in the sunroom. The black sprinkles on the bottom of the terrarium are poop! I'm gonna need to get another terrarium, since I'll need to add some sticks for them to wander about on as they look for a place to build their chrysalis and pupate. |
Quite many caterpillars! They're growing so fast.
ReplyDeleteSo cool!
ReplyDeleteWow, I am so impressed! Also jealous.
ReplyDeleteI swear they double in size every two days!!
ReplyDeleteI love that you're doing this!! They love curly parsley, dill, fennel, rue, and carrot tops, too. I'd be glued to the terrarium watching them all them time.
