nope not yet. theyve only been in cocoons for 2-3 weeks. I heard it takes all winter though.
-
Ah. Did it actually turn into a moth?
-
nope. definately woolly bears. they build cocoons with their fur, then I peeled the cocoon open and put the bald caterpillar in a seperate dish, he had nothing to build a new cocoon with. one caterpillar spit himself a new silk cocoon. the other turned to a larvae right there on the glass floor, no cocoon needed.
-
Yeah it is too bad. You might have tent caterpillars, they build webs.
-
damn dude, thats soooo interesting. I never thought these would be so "cool".
and aricka, lol funny. he built one that looked like a spider had wrapped him up in web, they can make like web or silk or something. and the way they make their coocon is absolutely fucking amazing!!
sucks that it takes all winter, I was expecting to see something soon.
-
I found out the cocoons actually take all winter to turn into a moth, so the cocoon is really just protection. Really weird!
-
LOL @ "half-assed coccoon" he was prolly like "WTF man im trying to sleep...god damn it, not again!!!"
-
2 days into the coccon I took him out. he was bald and confused. I put him in a clean jar with ONE leaf. he made this silk (spit it I think) and made a half assed coccoon with it but didnt use it, he fell off or something. then he curled into a ball on the bottom on his back on the glass and died. for 2 days.
2 days later I check and hes not dead!! overnight he turned into a soft yellow larvae. he loses his body/skull... its SOOO weird. they DO NOT need a cocon to turn to a moth!!
-
I have one cocooning right now, hope he lives a good life!
-
I used to keep one as a pet...I named him Swirlypuss....he was very dear to me...
But I had to let him go....Now he's probably dead...
R.I.P. Swirlypuss
You were my first ever pet and true to nature friend
