Has anyone raised moths that transform into underground pupas? I have imperial moth caterpillars that are ready to pupate and do not know what to expect. They have stopped eating and are wandering so I placed them in a dark tub with paper towels. They eject a pink fluid and are shrinking, but I've never done this before and wonder if this is normal.
