I only get to collect three stinky orange gifts which he probably pushed out'a himself on his second night. "Hmmm ... that was odd" .. I thought. I found him looking like this on top of the slice of zucchini I gave him. He's okay and very much alive just won't budge. I got rid of the kitchen towel and replaced it with a new one and just placed him back in.
He budged when I put him back but was just going around for more the whole coffee break so I was worried. Is he on a hunger strike? He snobbed his ball courgette flower and at that time it gave me an impression that he doesn't like left overs but since the flower was looking all dried up, I took a cup of water and let half of it sit on it to rehydrate and placed it in the fridge while my OC and that small voice in my head ganged up on me screaming ; "gerrrrmmmmmssss"~~~. I ignored both and went out to the backyard, picked a nasturtium flower and placed it back in his glass house. The lil' green guy just went crawling around his glass house restlessly.
I checked back later on and noticed - not a bite on neither the slices of zucchinis nor the nasturtium. I also noticed that the color of his head till the last pair of his six tiny upper legs are dull and his hooves like legs seem to be wearing boots? Black boots! Where did he get those? !!! Plus, the little guy keeps trying to go between the folds of the kitchen towel. Is he morphing? That small voice in my head again .. of course I had to listen to it this time.
I carefully took the whole kitchen towel out - with him and the plants in there and placed the plants with him on it on a bowl (don't worry I wasn't planning to make a soup out of him) and he curled himself up again. Since the kitchen towel lays flat under the plants and if he's actually a moth.. he must be trying to bury himself under it so I crumpled the kitchen towel to make sure it has a space underneath which he could crawl on. I placed the kitchen crumpled kitchen towel back in the glasshouse and pinch the middle hoping it would create a cave like effect for him to crawl on and placed back the plants on one corner since he didn't really touch them at all.
I felt like taking care of a sick kid that time hoping to ease what seem to be a tough phase he was going through so I left the lil' guy all curled up on the zucchini slices and left him alone in his glass house.
... the next morning: The first thing I did before having breakfast was check on the lil' guy. He was missing but the plants and the plastic cover on top of his glass house remained untouched. It's impossible for him to go through them toothpick size holes so I lifted the glass house and found him crawling around in there. The light must have bugged him so he crawled between that cave like fold in the middle so I took my phone and took a quick snap because I don't want to bug him further if he was already going through the morphing process. Two snaps and I placed him back between the pots of the avocados on top of the fridge to let him go on.
These are all I got and notice that his legs look all different. I didn't get to capture his face and I didn't bother because I didn't want to disturb him but it just looked the same to that of the video on top just paler. I left the guy alone and that time I wish I have a pincam I could use to spy his morphing process in that kitchen towel cave. For now, this is all I could share you.
