me thinks it`s "moth time" again

[ock]

well the weather is warmer and the leaves are growing on the birch trees, so I think it`s time to take my little tub of moth pupas, which I breed last year, out of the fridge, where they have spent all winter, and put them in my moth cage and wait for them to hatch

Better moths than mozzy's Ock

"wake up, wake up, wake up my little babies, wake up, it`s time for tea do de do de doooo "






I just walked past Mrs Ock holding my little tub full of babies and her face dropped and she just said "oh gawd, not again "

how very rude

I`ve put up a few bird boxes for them , but it seems like some horrid birds have moved into them instead

will have to buy some wasps from our local baker, he`s always got some in the window

now all I have to do is wait , I`m thinking it`ll be just a few days, once they`ve warmed up they should start popping out






when I put the cage up in our living room I swear I could see a tear of joy in Mrs Ock`s eye, bless her, she must be overwhelmed with both joy and excitment all in one , she has the same look when she stares at my animal skull collection

Awww I wanna breed some queen alexandra birdwing butterflies (I think they're called that anyway). Butterflies are better than moths, I like their curly mouths

What sort of moths are they?

I remember when we were trying to lay cushioned vinyl and it was "maybug time" (I doubt if the forum will allow me to call them cockchaffers). They kept landing upside-down on the glue while it was waiting to get tacky. They couldn't right themselves, we couldn't reach them, but if we didn't get them they made a lump in the floor

Mrs Ock must have the patience of a saint
