Well, I don't keep any hornworms... I did a little digging and I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I thought that it might help you a little: Great Lakes Hornworm Website. You might be able to send them an email and see if they could help you out a little :) Hope this helps!!

I tried this over the summer and it didn't work out so well. I got 5 of the 6 pupated worms to hatch, yet none of them breed! I think the problem was that they all had deformed probosscises (spelling) which might have been because it was to dry:confused:. Anyway here are some good sites for info/stock:

Good luck with your colony, I'll be trying again soon ~ Rex
