i was wintering over some coccoons and this guy decided to be born despite the fact that its cold enough outside to kill him. he struggled to hatch, climb or fly when i did try to release him. so… i guess he’s gonna live here? any tips?
Admire their beauty, if they can’t mate at least they can be adored. The genetics are probably interesting af. Wait if we can knock out their development and control it I might have thesis in the making

you can probably find some lightweight fabrics at your local family fabric shop to make some custom spaces too. like sew it over one of those plastic expanding balls that we had in the early 2000s.

yes his genetics are… interesting. Ive discovered he was born missing a leg and struggles to fly larger distances. this entire batch (nine instars, seven complete cocoons) have been a little off and were saved from certain bird death in my garden, so its possible mama is to blame
