Fuzzy babies
Lots of fuzzy baby caterpillars here in the lab. Right now these two species look pretty similar, but the differences will start accumulating in the next few instars. Currently they are less than a week old. The first two photos are the babies from this post!

Cute ones!! 🙂 I like your job very much. It is awesome to be in touch with live creatures, even though they must take a lot of time of cleaning and feeding! 🙂 Cant wait to see more pictures!
I don’t know anything, really, I’m just a kid who looks at caterpillars on this website after a traumatic caterpillar bite :P. But its’s clear that you are a specialist, and I really enjoy this site other than the strange scientific terms and certified geniuses that are commenting…
Howdy! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick
shout out and say I really enjoy reading through your articles.
Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums
that deal with the same topics? Thank you!
Hi to all, the contents existing at this website are
genuinely awesome for people knowledge, well, keep up the good work fellows.
You’ve made some good points there. I checked on the web to learn more
about the issue and found most people will go along with
your views on this web site.
Spot on with this write-up, I absolutely believe this website needs far more attention.
I’ll probably be returning to read through more,
thanks for the info!
I just found a baby caterpillar in my cats outside food bowl. At first glance of the adult caterpillar this one looks just like it. Except for a polar dots. The one I have in front of me has two symmetrical rows of poka dots on it’s back. Everything about the caterpillars in the pictures and the caterpillar I have in front of me is the same except for the polka dots.
