I attended an invertebrate show with my friends a few months back and ended up picking up four atlas moth cocoons towards the end.

I wasn't sure if they would emerge successfully but yesterday I found the first one sitting on my wardrobe.

Isn't it beautiful!

If the others hatch out in time then I will hopefully have some fertile eggs. I really want to see the whole life cycle of these amazing things.
