The last of my Antheraea polyphemus caterpillars are spinning cocoons. I will ship them as soon as the cocoons are fully dried and safe to ship. I have a large number of caterpillars (the majority have pupated). I have kept track of when cocoons were spun to ensure safe arrival before hatching.
Polyphemus moths are bivoltine (double brooded) in my area, meaning these cocoons will hatch roughly 2-3 weeks after they are made. I will include the date the cocoons were spun so you know when to expect hatching. Orders will be fulfilled on a first come, first serve basis.
