The caterpillars have been eating constantly as you can see from the pictures. Daredevil is on the side of the cage. He has been there for a long time so I think that means he is going to molt. Look at the picture of him hanging onto the cage with his feet. See the silky threads on the cage? Caterpillars use that silky thread as their safety line. If they lose their grip the thread will keep them from falling too far. They are all getting really fat and moving much slower. Roamy is not roaming so much. It is getting harder to tell them apart. I think that they will form their chrysalis in this order: Homebody, Daredevil, Roamy.
