found a caterpillar today inside an artichoke. UPDATE: Pics in OP
    #19353142 - 12/31/13 11:04 PM (10 years, 30 days ago)

Little guy survived two days in my fridge.

I took him from poverty to a 4 star resort inside a mason jar. With the news of my friend passing today, I think its only right to let this little guy turn into a beautiful butterfly (hopefully not a moth)

Anyone have experience with caterpillars? Any advice is nice. He has some lettuce hes been munching on and some twigs.

make sure there is air holes. get a few twigs and leaves. even better if you take a branch (a small one) with a leaf or two on it. good to go.

maybe a cotton ball with water in there? not sure, but the rest is easy. dont leave in direct sunlight.

sit and wait. enjoy.

I took a small pill bottle, cut it in half and put some lettuce and then surrounded the space around that with cotton so he doesn't drown. I put a few twigs up and a leaf on the soil and an artichoke leaf.

I would like to get a bigger area for him. Hes tiny si I think I have a few days to set him up a new bigger home.

I say this with the utmost respect: probably best to google and do some research on it (if you haven't already).
That being said I think that is awesome you spared its life. He/she totally deserves a fighting chance. Keep us updated! Pics along the way?
You are awesome. For all we know this could be your friend reincarnated :-)

Pimp out the cage, put a bunch of stuff in there but make sure there is room.  Also make sure there are plenty of places for it to hang it's chrysalis (cocoon) when it's ready to go.  See if you can identify it!  Also, does it have a name yet? :tongue:

Also, water is essential.

I guess it would be cool to say I watched a caterpillar change forms. Idk, when it fell out o the artichoke I just felt like I needed to take care of it. I hope I can.

Why not feed it artichoke leaves?

How big is this thing? It is almost certainly a moth, btw.

Can almost guarantee it's a moth. IME, very few caterpillars found on fruits/veggies are of the butterfly variety.

As for advice, you might wanna give him some artichoke if you want him to live.. Caterpillars tend to seek out specific plants. For different reasons, some may be okay eating non-native plants, some may not be.

Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

i wonder if you can treat the butterfly like a pet when you're done bonding with it. that would be great going around with your personal butterfly.

I discovered a colony of caterpillars on a mulberry tree this summer. I'm pretty sure they were some variety of silk worm, as they surrounded the area they were congregated in a very fine web.

Caterpillars look cool and it would be neat to watch their metamorphosis into a butterfly/moth. That being said they are serious pest to my outdoor cannabis crop each year and they are capable of destroying pounds of good bud if left unchecked. Kill them with fire I say  :flamethrow:

This little dude poops like ..a ton. I woke up today and there was black dots all over inside the jar on his food and on the side of the glass jar.

Anywho, I was able to take him out safely, change his lettuce and he was put back in. I'm gonna pick some random things out of the garden today and see if he has a preference for which leafy greens.

I thought he was dead when I checked him on this morning. Maybe he was just sleeping lol

If it was found on artichokes, you should probably give it that.  I've reared a few caterpillars before, not much to do besides provide adequate food (Some are specific about what they eat) and wait...

Artichokes are nastay.

I've found countless catipilliars in produce and majority do look like that guy. They always ended up as fish food for my cichlids.

I found this little dude all bundled up down in a piece of wet cotton that I have wrapped around the stems of his food. At first I thought he was dead, but I honestly think caterpillars sleep.

We got a bigger container for him, not like he needs it but it makes it easier to clean.

Oh and another thing, he dances. Its like...half of his body will stand straight up and move around lol like from side to side while his other half stays on the ground. Its funny looking.

I took another picture of him today. Ill take another one tomorrow and post them then.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.
