I failed with this the first time around... and those that were left got swept away in a storm when the wind took their repatrium across the property, lol.

Nice write-up Pluke! I'm intrigued by the grapevine leaves, will definitely have to try those sometime. I've always only used young tomato or bell pepper plants which was painful during egg removal due to the small and delicate size of the leaves and plant.

Good luck with the breeding project! Hope you have a ton of chow at the ready for when those eggs hatch! A single clutch of those larvae eat an absurd amount of food O.o
