Adrienne,
Please forgive me for taking so long to get back to you, my son is visiting and we've been out with his insect/spider book identifying everyone we can :) Yesterday we saw a Carolina mantid and Patrick (my son) caught one our resident yellow rat snakes, he was so proud :)

Mailing address is Anthony (GPS and MAPQUEST and YAHOO MAPS use mailing addresses). My physical address is Sparr, the little town next to Anthony. Our delivery men have finally gotten used to small towns such as ours, was rough in the beginning.
I currently have 4 Pipevine Swallowtails in chrysalis state in a tank, will take pics as they emerge and upload them here. I've never raised Pipevines in a tank before. Their cats sure are fat little buggers.
Gingers are blooming well right now and butterflies, especially Zebra Swallowtails, black Swallowtails, etc.. flying all over the place. If you stop by, bring your camera you should get some nice shots. Had hummers fighting over flowers this afternoon, it was hilarious.

Here is a picture of a Giant Swallowtail on celery...I swear, so I had to take a picture, this is something I've never had happen before.
