Karen had sent me money in advance wanting Luna eggs but no more have eclosed yet. I checked the cocoons yesterday and they are very much alive.
Offer only for Registered DG subscribers that are active members of the Butterfly forum only please.
Anyway I had 4 males and one female Antheraea Pernyi eclose and she is laying eggs this morning. Haven't gotten a response from Karen and would really like to ship these out tomorrow to whom ever wants them. The postage will be 4 something, the minimum priority shipping rate. D-mail me your addy please, first come first serve. I have 13 more that haven't eclosed yet so more eggs should be up for offer as they eclose.
They eat many types of oak leaves and very simple to care for
Antheraea Pernyi Eggs
Your killing me, Donna!!!! I would love to try some, but I just don't know if they would eat the Oak leaves off my 2 trees. I don't want to take the chance of them dying of starvation. I will be watching this thread though. I don't think I currently have anything else that they would eat. :-(
Becky they eat many varieties of oak. I don't know what kind I fed them but I can take a pics for you
Take a pic of your leaves and the actual tree, please if you would.
Donna, I would love to try it...I'll dmail you.
Thanks!
I will Becky. Fixing to right now. I used 3 similar trees as the branches got to where I couldn't reach them without a ladder. Grandsons just left and you can't take your eyes off them for a second or they are into something lol 3 & 4 1/2 yr.old
Thanks Donna... sent you a dmail response!
Do you have any photos of these that eclosed for you? Would love to see your pictures.
Karen
