Wow! Congrats! I’m going to have wax moths soon because I only give Eustis a wax worm once in awhile. I’ve had this dish of them for over a month and they’re pupating! My bsfl are turning into flys to so I open Eustis’s cage and let them go In there! :)
 
I was picking some tomatos a few days ago and saw a wild hornworm on the tomato plant... not sure where it came from I never saw eggs and only 1 found. Hopefully you get eggs!
 
Congratulations! That is awesome! We have about 10 of them that just pupated - it’s our first attempt at breeding them. Hope we have as much success getting moths.

I changed my setup up. I really hate bug burger, it molds so quickly. Silk chow works well but it’s all really kinda messy. I’m trying to mimic a natural environment.

The sweet potato vines grow super fast, I’m hoping they will be able to keep up with their appetite. I have a mulberry tree setup too. The trees are propagating So it’ll be a little bit before they are ready for hungry critters. That will be my silk setup.
