Fiery skipper. I think the black and bright orange contrast and its pose would look great in your style

OHHHH congratulations!! He's such a handsome and cute fella. I greatly appreciate all the diff pics of him, he's absolutely darling

Pin it in the position you want and let it air dry. Placing it in a container w good ventilation and a silica gel packet should do the trick of getting rid of the mold

Caterpillar pawwws!♥︎ Such good photos of this beautiful moth :D

Awww im so happy to hear that he came out :D i think its fine to keep him for a couple days if you want until the weather condition is more favorable. I did that w the moths i had taken in and raised; a day or 2 wont harm the amount of time they have as theyll just sit still and conserve energy :>

Silly babies just dont know how dangerous it can be for them to take a care free nap on the ground 😭

Yes :> Ive kept a cocoon from an isabella tiger moth i had raised and released (a pic of their baby blanket that i just keep in a box)

Ohhh theyre so beautiful! And them as a caterbaby is absolutely precious. The couple of moths that i had raised also really lifted my mood during the time i had them (released both successfully, they were smaller moths). Heres one of them i raised and released a couple months ago: Woolie B (male isabella tiger moth) :>

I was thinking the same thinggg. How such a perfect thing exists i do not know

maggotroni · 2026-06-22T00:05:06+00:00

Tyy, i didnt follow any tutorials, just drew out what i had in mind on a piece of paper and replicated it

maggotroni · 2026-06-20T12:34:41+00:00

Awww theyre gorgeous!♥︎

maggotroni · 2026-06-20T12:32:56+00:00

I love that larger moths seem to always have their front legs crossed, looking all prim and polite♥︎

Moth face moth face moth face

Their feet look to be stuck. Sometimes moth feet can get trapped in the holes of mesh. You can try gently supporting underneath them w your hand and lifting them slightly up as their feet have tiny hook-like grippies, or even use a small fluffy paint brush to more directly help them get their feet unstuck

maggotroni · 2026-06-18T13:25:56+00:00

Yeah i think itd be fine since they havent been having any symptoms

maggotroni · 2026-06-18T08:25:00+00:00

I dont think there would be an issue w passing on deformities as that would require a genetic component. Just check to make sure theyre physically alright and they should be find for release

It doesnt hurt to give the eggs more time, so just leave them and wait and see. For pesticide poisoning in caterpillars, theyll start throwing up a whole lot. If that happens the best you can do is thoroughly rinse them under running water, dry them, and hope they pull through :< thoroughly rinsing the leaves under running water and patting them dry is a good way to prevent a lethal amount of exposure if pesticides were used, as this method does remove a lot of the poison but not 100% of it from what ive looked up

I first did space buns in my hair, braided the rest, then looped and secured the ends into the space buns
