Yes, I still (April 19, 2012) have cecropia inventory ($6.00); $5.00 if you order ten or more.
There is one shipping and handling fee of $8.00 to US destinations whether you order one item
or fifty items, etc..
All prices listed above are in US
dollars. Items will be shipped from New Hampshire by my US shipping partner.
I am happy to receive payment by personal check, international bank or postal money
order in US funds, or cashier's check.
I can also accept Paypal, but there would be an additional 4% Paypal transaction fee that would be added to your order.
If you wish to proceed with an order, send email with your complete shipping address, the species and quantities desired,
and your preferred payment method to
Bill oehlke. Do not send money until I have confirmed your order with a
return email where I will give you a price
quote.
I provide online overwintering instructions, and I provide online instructions for spring/summer emergence of cocoons.
I also provide online instructions
for rearing these species if you are interested.

world's
Saturniidae.
Hence, this site will continue to be a
work-in-progress.
I am constantly seeking
natural setting images of Saturniidae in all stages of
development

text format for your viewing and enjoyment.

A special section on hybridization is available.
New rearing articles will
be posted regularly. Members will receive quick responses to email
questions. Proceeds are to cover my online
expenses, member
contest prizes, high quality text references and to help send my
youngest two children to
university. Members who deal in
