Are those eggs left by the moth?
Yes, there were plenty of them.
I didn't keep them though. In the first place, I don't know what they feed on. Got this moth because it pupated on the wheels spoke of my chair after I've been out!
Second, I hadn't had any luck rearing this type to adulthood. I saw the caterpillar before it pupate and left it alone till it pupated.
And, ehmm... :sweat: furry cat scares me.
