Help with black swallowtails

10 years ago

Hi
This is the first time I have raised black swallowtails. For two days one of my caterpillar is in mid molting and with my experience cercropia and monarchs this is bad. Two caterpillars have there scent horns out and there not going back in.
Thanks for the help
Jacob

Sorry, when the scent horns/osmeteria are stuck in place, the cat is a goner.

So sorry Jacob. Don't give up though. Keep trying. It doesn't work out right every single time, but most times it does.
