Cool! :) We have a little guy like that in a jar right now. We used to always pick the eggs and caterpillars off our tree. I hated that they were eating up and killing my new, young Cara cara orange tree! Finally we let one caterpiller grow up for my son and it was so pretty as a butterfly! Now we pick off the caterpillars as soon as we find them and put them in a jar. But we feed it leaves from our old lemon tree that I don't care about. Sometimes though it's stubborn and will go on a hunger strike until I give it a young leaf from my orange tree. If it doesn't eat for a day or so, I usually give in and cut a leaf for it. -L

No kidding? I've never seen that. I haven't seen many leaf bites on the lemon tree, only the tangerine.
interesting!
Looks beautiful! But you don't mind that they eat your leaves?
