From the other day. It turned black and shriveled some, and then he went into a death curl. Gave him water, rehoused, and been keeping it very humid and offering crushed worm he wont likely take due to maturing. Thankfully he seems to be doing better this morning, but still worried. Though if he can hold out a few more weeks he'll likely make his sperm web then I can pair him.
Saw some bumblebees on sage flowers today. Forgot just how big they are. :3
Atteva aurea , the ailanthus webworm moth

Growing catnip outside. Despite the heat, mint species seem to be loving it as long as the soil wet.
Now the fun part where some I cant water and others I can. XD
With lithops once they split they go into a mode where they use up their old leaves to reestablish new ones, and if watered can root rot easier.

My lithops plants. Tiny dime sized ones on the left and larger golf ball sized on the right. Hoping I get lucky with a set of twins on some of these where the plant self-propogates without seeds. They're just cute, though very fickle and weirdly they seem to love dirt with heavy gravel. :3

Acherontia atropos! Guys at the reptile show had some preserved specimens that had passed in their collections. Yes, this is one of the "death's head" moths. :3
Potted some larger lithops (type of succulent). Can't wait for them to bloom, which should be in the works as they're shooting up and splitting.
Eh, if any of yall like to bake, have the zucchini bread recipe I use.
