Hornworm Breeding

[Camo_The_Cham]

I know I could just look it up, but I would rather get a real person's answer. How do you breed hornworms, i've already got the hornworms and don't know what to do now. please help!

Hey! you're not the only one. I just started breeding them, and so far, the only thing I've done is successfully pupate them and hatch into moths.

Here's a helpful thread. It should have quite a bit of information.

I had grabbed bits of info from various sources when looking up what to do. I still have unanswered questions that I’m trying to find answers for. I haven’t had the same success as I had the first time with all of my pupae/chrysalis’ emerging into moths. I suspect temperature is the missing part…I need to add extra heat. I’m currently trying again and my hornworms just turned into pupae.
