Zebra Longwing caterpillars 9.14.14

On 9.9.14 a few of the Zebra Longwing eggs hatched. Here are 2 little ones. They are yellow when they are this small.

A few more but they are really hard to see. I have to use a magnifying glass. There are actually 3 in the circle on the R.

Today is the 14th and this caterpillar is starting to grow. It is about 1/2 inch long….white with black spikes. You can see one that is much younger on the R and a couple munching on the leaf on the L. I have one leaf with 5 on it of varying sizes. They seem to like being together.

Still have about a dozen of the Gulf Fritillaries in here and a dozen Queen caterpillars in the other house.

Cant wait to see this one pupate.
