Nothing new from yesterday. Hubert is still in the same position as before, and there is still a good portion of him at the top. I was told to provide a new cage for him once this stage is complete, though I admit there really isn’t that great of a space in my room forContinue reading “2/4/2020”

Hubert is in the same position as last time. Not much has changed as far as the chrysalis goes, but I know the process takes a while. The posts will probably look like this (with not much activity) for the next week or so. Still, it’s important to check on Hubert daily, so there willContinue reading “2/3/2020”

BIG NEWS UPDATE! Hubert is beginning his chrysalis phase! His body towards the bottom is fattening up while the top is still his normal size. I’m honestly shocked at how much his body has changed since yesterday. I knew he was getting ready to transform, but when I saw him yesterday, there weren’t any changesContinue reading “2/2/2020”

Starting February off with some action! Today, Hubert has decided to hang from the ceiling. It doesn’t look like he’s transforming quite yet, but I suppose it’s good to get the practice in when you can. No growth seems to have occurred still, so I think he’s done with that for good. Since there isn’tContinue reading “2/1/2020”

Hubert has been hanging out on the ceiling lately. He’ll come down occasionally to eat more food and walk around a bit, but I’ve been seeing him gravitate more towards the ceiling. Nothing has been happening to his body that would suggest he’s ready to become a chrysalis yet, but I’m imagining it will takeContinue reading “1/31/2020”

Hubert hasn’t been doing much today. He’s just been resting on the walls towards the top of his cup. He has been moving around a bit yesterday, though, so my guess is that he’s just tired again today. He’s been using the silk he created a lot. It makes me wonder what he would beContinue reading “1/30/2020”

The first picture is a strange occurrence that I have started seeing this yesterday evening. I haven’t had the time to research what it is yet, but in tomorrow’s post, I will have researched it and will confirm what it is. The second picture is a comparison between Hubert and my thumb. It appears thatContinue reading “1/29/2020”

This picture was taken last night before I went to bed, but it also applies to today because this same phenomenon is occurring. A weird “webby” substance has formed inside the cup! I thought it was a cobweb, so while feeling scared for Hubert, I took some of it out. I then researched it toContinue reading “1/28/2020 (and a little bit of yesterday)”

Hubert is back to crawling along the walls of his cup. He seems to have grown A LOT more from when I had taken his picture last. He extends past my first knuckle now. My guess is by next week – maybe sooner? – he will be the size of my thumb. I’m considering gettingContinue reading “1/27/2020”

Hubert appears to be sleeping right now. I don’t blame him one bit because yesterday, he was VERY active, so he’s probably resting from his busy day yesterday. Either that or, because he is dangling from the ceiling, he might be getting ready for his big change! I just hope he isn’t dead. I’ll probablyContinue reading “1/26/2020”
