FREE: Butterfly & Moth Eggs

The listing, Butterfly & Moth Eggs has ended.

I have Cecropia Moth Eggs up for auction. You will get 2 eggs (or 2 caterpillars if they hatch before the end of the auction). BEWARE: YOU MUST HAVE the appropriate food plant for these caterpillars or they will not eat and will die. Everything you need to know is on the internet. THEY EAT LIKE COWS constantly and you must check them every day and clean out the caterpillar POOP (which is like small pieces of dirt. Use a glass or clear plastic container with a vented lid or glass jar with tissue rubberbanded around the opening of the jar. Keep out of direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of anything bigger than the caterpillar or they will become lunch. Change their leaves when the leaves look like they are not juicy any more. Leave the leaves on the branch so they have someplace to hang on to. I will answer all of your questions if you need help you can email me for more info. Foods for this caterpillar: alder, apple, ash, beech, birch, box-elder, cherry, dogwood, elm, gooseberry, maple, plum, poplar, white oak, willow. May also feed on lilac and tamarack. Please do not cut up your grandma's lilacs to feed your caterpillars!!!
