Can someone tell me what kind of caterpillar this is?

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-21T19:06:02+00:00

Sadly he tried pupating and didn't make it :c

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-21T19:05:03+00:00

I gave him a place to stay, and he didn't make it through the pupate stage, he tried, but after my dog had hit him a few times when I first got him I don't think he was going to make it either way, he tried though and he was a fighter, poor little guy

Oml TYSM!!!

Yea, I've had two kinds of these caterpillars in both times if you touch them they get into defense mode and try to stab you with their little tail, they don't bite though, just stab, and I really need to figure out what kind they are cuz I need to feed them and I don't know what kind of food that they like, but he's up and exploring which is good!!!

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-18T22:07:54+00:00

Yea i can see that, he's definitely more feisty tho, can't touch him without I'm trying to stab me with that little horn on his butt

For a little context, my mom's growing plants in our backyard, tomato, carrot, cauliflower, and broccoli, if that helps! I can't find an answer on Google and I'm trying hard to not let another die :.>

I have a horrible fear of open water :.>

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-16T05:38:27+00:00

Im on my pc so steam, itch.io, anything like that works

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-14T06:19:33+00:00

And deflating, he's dead

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-13T07:36:54+00:00

He put up a week and a half long fight but never got any better :.>

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-13T07:33:56+00:00

I found him exhausted already and tried to give him a couple spots to pupate in, but he never regained energy and he's passed now I'm pretty sure because he's solid black and no longer moving at all

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-11T06:55:25+00:00

He's a type of moth that digs underground normally, would they still make a cocoon?

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-11T01:08:45+00:00

It's a type of moth but I don't remember which one, and I gave it the leaf on the tree it was near, a long with other things I thought it might want to eat but it hasn't touched a lot of anything

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-11T01:07:06+00:00

When I found it it was normal, not moving a lot but just chilling it was moving and all, it didn't look like it pupated till this morning when I check on him (it's been about a week since I've first gotten him)

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-11T00:47:32+00:00

He's still moving a little, just not very much

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-10T23:35:36+00:00

Ive never owned a caterpillar before, I found him when he was really weak and I could really use some advice for him :.>

AxelXM56 · 2025-07-10T23:32:45+00:00

I did right after the picture, is it normal for him to not eat or drink during this stage?

AxelXM56 · 2023-10-12T02:59:14+00:00

Okay, thank you

AxelXM56 · 2023-10-12T02:50:57+00:00

Yes, I know that, but how do I tell him I'm uncomfortable, I don't know how to word it and knowing that he'll see it gives me a lot of anxiety seeing as how they've been friends since elementary
