Tersa Sphinx Moth Cats!

17 years ago

I was just sitting outside, enjoying the butterflies fluttering around, when I noticed a monarch chrysalis on a penta leaf! Got closer to take a better look and found at least 2 Tersa Sphinx Moth cats! Big ones too! I have never seen these guys before, but by their size they are later instars. I knew I had seen photos of them on this forum, thank you Miss Sherry! I did a search of penta hosts and found the stream. Gotta love this site!

Haven't decided if I will bring these guys in or leave them outside. If I bring them in, do I need to bring in soil for the bottom of the enclosure or lots of leaves for them to bury themselves in? Any advice would be appreciated.
