    Caterpillars are my most favorite larva insect.🐛

    I like monarch caterpillars more than monarch butterflies because I think they’re a little creepier than monarch butterflies and that caterpillars are a little new other than butterflies.🐛🦋

  • 👍💯❤️Tırtıl 🐛 yaprağı yiyecek, kozasını örecek, bakalım nasıl bir kelebeğe🦋 dönüşecek, Subhanallah ❤️💯👍 Emir geldiği zaman Tırtıl 🐛 kelebek 🦋 yolculuğuna devam edecek,, Yumurtadan çıktı; Tırtıl 🐛oldu; şimdi kozaya girmeye hazırlanıyor ; pupa olacak; değişip, kelebek 🦋 olacak; Subhanallah; Biz insanoğlu da aynı tırtıl gibi uzun bir yolun yolcusuyuz. Anne karnından dünyaya, dünyadan kabre, kabirden berzaha, berzahtan kıyamete, kıyametten haşre, haşir meydanından mizana, teraziye, teraziden sırat köprüne, sırat köprüsünden Cennet veya Cehenneme yolcuyuz.Cehennemden Rabbim hepimizi muhafaza eylesin. Yolcu yolunda gerek. Rabbim yolda azıksız bırakmasın; Kabirden sonra ihtiyacımız olacak azığımızı, dünyadan toplayıp; Son nefeste, günahlarımız bağışlanmış olarak, En önemli durak olan kabre, gülerek girenlerden, Cennette Cemalullah şerefine erenlerden eylesin Rabbim. Ya Rab, Bizden Razı ol, bizi bu uzun yolculukta yalnız bırakma, Amin❤️
  • Very nice varied assortment of Monarchs. Caterpillars looking for a place to hang. (Annoying the others) Prepupal hanging caterpillars. A pupating caterpillar. A fresh chrysalis that’s still moving a bit. Some older hardened chrysalids. All you need is a mature chrysalis with the colors showing and an adult monarch emerging from another chrysalis.

    Monarch caterpillars are like mini elephant seals, swinging their heads around wildly when they bump into one another.

    A question I had 16 chrysalis form inside a cardboard habitat they were hanging close. Somewhere I read the need room to flap their wings when they emerge or else they may not be able to fly. Has this been an issue for you because I see yours are hanging close. It was a pain to move them and if I don't have to do that I would prefer to skip that step. Thoughts would be appreciated.​

    I wonder why there are no fresh green fire weed leaves provided? I do not consider monarchs a cannibalistic species...

    You have to many in thus habitat. They need room to speead wings and you can see they are agitating each other. This can cause injury . Having so many so close also requires a very detailed cleaning daily to prevent disease.
