Any other hobby entomologists here?

So...it's Friday... I saved this dude Monday. Took him home, put him in a critter container as our temps dropped. He kids set him up a biome, gave him water and a baby dubias roach and he enjoyed it. well...

Tuesday morning he wasn't in there lol

I found him just now!

Gave him a drink, gave him another dubias, although I doubt he'll eat, and may put him outside tomorrow once it warms up a bit. We've had a roller coaster of 30-80 for past 3-4 weeks like seriously mother nature, wake up lol

What I have in my critter container:

These grubs were either not in chambers in the soil, or I accidentally broke them (sorry!!)

Partially busted chamber with a grub in

Fully intact chamber with a grub in (wow, terrible pic)

Creative chamber made from a walnut (how thrifty!) with a grub in

Injured grub (will probably heal)


And finally, my hornworm from this post

Nice, solid pupa!
 
After two meals and one molt, got this little guy in an upgraded container.
