Wild Hornworm ready to pupate already?
I found this guy while walking my dogs. He was crawling across the sidewalk. I gave him a nice big enclosure with some sticks to climb,
Tomato plant leaves and a slice of tomato. He’s not eating and keeps hiding under the paper towel. I raised hornworms from the pet store before and those guys were gluttons. They ate constantly and got huge. But then again, they had that peanut butter smelling stuff in their container, which maybe is like caterpillar crack. Is this guy ok? Is he just ready to pupate? He seems pretty small.
