Week 2

At the beginning of week two our group cleaned out the feces from the worm's tube. Afterwards we noticed that our hornworm had molted because we saw a piece of its old skin in the tube. Then we measured the worm and it was approximately 5 cm in length. There were also a few more characteristics that made the worm stand out this week too. Brüno was much larger this week than he was the previous week and his pigmentation was beginning to show. His stripes were very distinct along his sides and he also had several dots all over his back that lined up with the stripes. Finally, he was a turquoise color, instead of a natural green color, because we have been feeding him a wheat product instead of plants.
