Just a brief update to show how quickly things are changing. In a matter of two days, some of the caterpillars have taken on a greenish color. You can see a difference between the smaller, yellower individual on the left, and the fat, green guys on the right.
We have noticed that the caterpillars are much more interested in the green maple leaves than in the larger, redder ones. They have almost completely annihilated the green leaf we placed in their habitat, and they are now slowly moving to the redder leaves. We are going to try to collect more prize green leaves today.
