EGGS Available for Spring 2022 Pre-Order:

• Read the egg and caterpillar blog post to familiarize with general bug needs before ordering.
• Each species will ship separately as they fly at different times.  Pop-up tents, sleeves, and seeds will ship together with the first egg shipment if ordering more than one species with accessories in the same order.
• We may have other species available during spring/summer, and those will magically appear briefly as available.  We'll also post to our Facebook page.

PUPAE overwintering and shipping now for Spring 2022 hatching:

• Overwintering (diapausing) pupae will become available sometime in the first week of November, and ship through winter and early spring or until sold out. 
• Read the overwintering instructions blog post for instructions on diapausing pupa care.
• Multiple species ordered will ship together in one package.
• If adding eggs to the order, additional shipping will be added for the eggs that will ship separately later.
