Butterfly larvae dealer question

[spyderlady]

Does anyone know where I can find an online dealer in Texas who sells butterfly caterpillars? I would like to find someone WILL sell to individuals.
The places I've looked either don't sell to individuals or only sell butterflies for weddings, funerals, memorial services, etc.

You might have to buy some eggs online from a different state. It would probably be a good idea to purchase whatever stage overwinters naturally so that it lessens the likelyhood of anything going wrong.

What are you looking for? I usually have painted lady caterpillars,adults, eggs, and pupae. (and I sell at less than half the price of most other places. In fact, I havent seen any for cheaper than mine.)

 

[What]

I think Bill Oehlke usually has a few butterflies for sale, but not much at this time of year: http://www.silkmoths.bizland.com/indexos.htm

I did recently receive an order of twelve spicebush swallowtail pupae, 4 luna moths, 4 polyphemus, 4 promethea and 2 c. splendens sinaloensis from Bill. Will the larvae of spicebush swallowtails accept prickly ash?

Insectnet, if it's still active, is a good place to look for these.
