J Darcy 5,871 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 No, its not WILF going through the change (i suspect he has already)....but this juicy spiney little eating machine. Only a couple of weeks ago he was a tiny insignificant grub, now he has decided "its time" and has whipped himself to his nettle with some silk.....i shall take a few pics as he changes..... i think i'l call him Clarice.....

Guest WILF Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Yes, thank you Darcy If you want to start, we got the kids a very simple little starter kit (from ebay I think) and I must say, it has the whole family interested. They have just turned to the pupa stage and we are all waiting eagerly to see them emerge........Painted Ladies I think. Will try some more exotic types in the future, of that I am positive.
