Perfectly normal in little higher temperature you will get week maybe two but is risky if you keep them first time because they can get on higher temperature and humidity infection. So for me personally for morpho slow growing on lower room temperature is safe growing

From my experience Morpho do not like directly sunlight only partial shade. Several males can be problem in small cage, pairing usually takes after 4-5 days for males and 2-3 days females. Laying can be dalay because lower temperature but in optimal condition no before second day. Best plant for laying is mucuna pruriens or beneti.

this is not in high concentration because plant will died to, I use dont worry just look for ph neutral garden soil

Polystyrene box 30*30*50 cm fill with 20cm garden substrate is enough for 20-40 cats . after 10 days you can digup them from soil

If some caterpillars in moulting period separated from its silk, for me the best option is some Antheraea or Samia old cocoons

Hi all
I agree, but only one small amendment , peleides is a very simple species. and for the growth tolerate very large changes, without problems for later hatching. the last generation I have, it grew at a temperature of 30-40*C, and was in pupa stage and hatch on 35-40% humidity.

depending on temperature about 12-14 days I rear them in plastic box until l3 and then in mesh cage. I feed them with walnut

Hi
I understand the problem with the plants, but as I have already said bad tolerate a high percentage of moisture. happens is that if you were sick that it will be a little less, But in any case great, you have enough for the next generation

here is my pavonia

at higher Temperatures, from my experience, if the higher humidity of 60-70%, is much higher mortality

what percentage did you manage to keep, temperature is good for about 30 deg C, but be careful not to be high humidity

hi I try with Chery but unfortunate they all die in l2

hi Thomas,
try oak

I know this is not the topic for this section but I have one question, which is the best wood for butterfly display box

Thank you for your response Fabian, meaning that we share opinion. I asked for the reason, in a circle around my house grow another four types of eucalyptus, so I thought to try

Hello everyone,
I have one question, for what reason all mentioned eucalyptus gunnii. Do any particular reason, or because only he can survive very low temperatures.

Hello Björn,

now I have them in large numbers, happens to me when clean the box, to be tip over vessel with branches and that fall into the hands full of caterpillars. I have not received any skin rash for now, but everyone reacts differently. I hope I was helpful
