Dear Bugs,

Please take care of OP's desk now that you have killed him.

Also, post updates. You'll need to pick up his posting slack.

Sincerely,

does animal imprinting work on bugs? will they see OPs face and think he's Mommy?

or maybe when they hatch they eat the first thing they see.







eggs, please eat the OP.

We may have finally found unobtainium but I will never find eywa.

Gay Hitler I hope you aren't leaving that desk lamp on at all hours of the day over top of your plant, the florescent lighting probably isn't good for the eggs.

Ladybugs are cool :( I wish I could train them to eat wasps. when did this become hate-on-ladybugs thread?

here's mama stinker





she does look much darker than she did before

is she hosed? haha i mean she already is laying eggs so she got hosed, but is she dying or anything?

she moves around the tree and seems happy enough

This all started when my coworker saw the bug on my shoulder after I came in from outside and placed the bug at the base of the tree.

I guess she likes it because she has been living on it for like two weeks now and hasn't tried to leave



heres the tree, burger king crown for scale

there are like half as many eggs now and no babby bugs in sight, not sure what happened

the light is on from 9-6 m-f

update i cant find a single egg. they are all gone. i looked all around the tree, and it doesn't look like they fell or anything. i'd expect to at least see some egg casings right?

regardless, assuming she can survive on this tree, i think she will try again. internet seemed to suggest they lay like 400 eggs over the course of the summer, and shes 14 eggs in on this plant, soo im expecting another batch if she can survive

No man ladybugs are cool. They just also happen to be voracious and aggressive insect eating predators.

Cockroaches are actually extremely intelligent hunter bugs as well, too bad they want to live in my loving house so much and poo poo on my dishware.
