Hello everyone
I need help
Many hylex euphorbiae are being born to me.
I would like to know where to put them, the space they need and what food to put them in order to reproduce them.

Dear Oscar,
Put them into thoroughly aerated plastic boxes, keep them dry & warm. Food plants are most Euphorbia species, preferably E. cyparissias.
Hasta pronto,

Put the butterflies in a large cage with good ventilation, preferably outside. You should feed them with sugar water by hand. If you find this too tricky, then either put some flowers in water or take a blue bottle cap (or something similar, but it's important that it's blue) put it high enough for them to see and reach it (glue it on a stick or something) and fill it with sugar water. Don't be surprised if you can't see them mating. This happens usually in the second half of the night and they don't stay together till the next morning. Because of that, you should put the foodplant in there right away. If you have a potted plant of Euphorbia put this in, otherwise cut some off and put it in water. Again in a place that is suited for them to reach it. If everything is working out the females should start laying eggs within a few nights.
Greetings Dennis
