Luna Moth (Actias luna) and Imperial Moth (Eacles imperialis) ova for sale. ALL my moth breeding is F1 material. I do not inbreed. I take my reared females of both of the above species, let them attract males. I wait until I get at least 20 males and then I select the brightest and largest male for mating. Breeding moths into F2, F3, etc. is foolhardy and I do not do that.

I also offer to split ova up into ova from 2 or 3 different females so the rearer can avoid inbreeding.

Luna Moth ova are $20 for 50 ova, $30 for 100 ova, $50 for 200 ova.

Imperial Moth ova are $20 for 30 ova, $30 for 60 ova and $50 for 120 ova.

Shipping is $4.25 and payment via Paypal is preferred.

Best foodplants for Luna are Walnut, Sweetgum, Hickory, Pecan

Best foodplants for Imperial are Sweetgum, Oak, Sassafras, Silver Maple. Will eat MANY different plants but the largest and healthiest moths result from the above listed foodplants.

The window of opportunity to ship ova is short. Females are laying now. So if you want ova NOW is the time to order.
