If yours is a female set her cage out at night in a dlightly elevated area anf she will call for a male but dont br suprised if a few males arrive. The eggs dont take too long to hatch however the the caterpullars produce insane ammounts of poop
@arachnoherp I raised a handful of different Saturniids from eggs a couple years back, so I'm familar with all that I think finding enough birch branches for them to eat everyday once they reached their 5th instar was much harder than dealing with all that poop!
@arachnoherp I raised 13 cecropia to adulthood 2 years ago and they nearly ate me out of house and home! They're definitely worth raising if you have the food though. I'd love to try io and imperial moths.
