Its the first time i've tried to rear this species and I currently have L1 larva which are a couple of days old. I suddenly noticed that a few larva started wandering around, even leaving the leaf where they already established a feeding spot with the characteristic sparing of the middle rib of the leaf. They seem to be just wandering around from leaf to leaf now and not settling down. Is this normal behavior? I'm worried that they wont start feeding again and just die. I got to just wait and see anyway i guess, but if anybody has experience with this species, some feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
