Eggs are from pairings between sleeve-reared females and wild males.
In this population, about two thirds of the cocoons from first-brood eggs (May) can be expected to produce moths in July. The remaining cocoons will enter diapause and overwinter.
Foodplants: Oak, birch, willow, maple. I use Burr Oak (Quercus macrocarpa).
Note: Eggs are sensitive to excessive heat: please do not supply an address that delivers to a mailbox in the sun. If the package is delayed by USPS, I will either re-ship or refund the order and shipping charges, because problems associated with shipping are always the responsibility of the seller. Never place food plant leaves in a closed container with eggs.
