I am SO out of my element here.

Apparently some school project going on. But this was more or less the same way I raised them. I did not use toilet roll tubes like these kids are using. Funny I remember cocoons much yellower than these. I guess they were a different species. I hope those buggers keep growing fat and happy, good luck man.

Oh wow, I totally missed your post. Sorry! Thanks for the info.
They are growing like lil Godzillas.

Ohhhhh Refffffff......!?! Here's your namesakeeeeee... *EG*





I'm down to about six, and I have no idea what I did wrong. I guess releasing six is better than what would have happened.

I figure I was a baby serial killer in my previous life from the way this karma has gone so far, lol.

Btw, that pile of leaves you see there? That lasts half a day! I'm glad I live in the woods with plenty of wild Sweet Gum trees I can pluck! Greedy lil bastids eat all night and half the day.

Ref, I need you to have a firm talking to your namesake here. I give you...the "un cocoon"



I gotta go look this up! (?) I'm a bad mother, sob! She left it and started eating again! The others are snoozing nicely.
