Studio pet

P.P. doesn´t have a clue about the frequent appearance of butterflies in her life. Very mysterious! This is Schmetti, the studio pet of the Queen, trying to get through the window. Schmetti has spent the winter in P.P.s royal chambers. Now Schmetti is getting a little weak despite all effords to feed him or her. The peacock butterfly is sleeping almost all day long, only sometimes taking a sip of mineral water with sugar...

P.P. now single mother!

Falti

Three days ago P.P.Queen became a mother of sweet little Falti. One day she found a little green caterpillar in her broccoli, P.P. was curious what kind of creature this green thing might become.

This is how Falti looked like as a caterpillar (Photo by Walter Mueller)

So she put it in a jar together with some of the broccoli and two days later and after the caterpillar began to cocoon, green caterpillar was a black something. The Queen was wating and waiting and after about two weeks Falti came to see the light of day.

Here you can see Falti after his birth with his cocoon. P.P. thinks that she now might be the proud mother of an Autograph gamma moth. Right now Falti is sitting in the Queens bedroom waiting for springtime to get some good sweet nectar. In the meantime she is trying to find the right food for little Mothyboy.
