We were surprised to find a little green caterpillar (on daikon) survive after being in the fridge for three days. Afraid that the birds might eat it, we created a little habitat.
Interestingly, we discovered a cocoon the following day, thinking that the green caterpillar had turned white. Another day after, we realised there were actually two caterpillars in the habitat! The latter turned into a Diamondback Moth several days later and we set it free.
The little green caterpillar remains in the habitat and has become longer with a purplish red line in the middle.
Wondering if this is a Cabbage Looper Moth? Found this little caterpillar on a daikon after being in the fridge for three days - still alive!
Accidental find in our little habitat. Moth emerged from its cocoon in less than a week. Flew away in a split second.
