soon my moths will be emerging, so I have decided to make this interesting

i'm going to put on a guessing game that guesses the order the things will start emerging

the prize for the winner will be a dozen eggs of your choice of species for free

there are 2 ways to win

1: you guess the order most correctly

2: you guess the order most closely to my guess (which I will post gradually as moths begin to emerge)

you have until the first moths emerge to put in guesses and they can't be edited (I will take screenshots to ensure honesty)

these are the species I have:

actias luna, antheraea polyphemus, automeris io, dyrocampa rubicunda, callosamia promethean, samia cynthia

if there happens to be a tie, all winners will be awarded free eggs

so go ahead, guess the order they will emerge! US only please :)

 
i forgot one

First to last:

Actias luna

Dryocampa rubicunda

Antheraea polyphemus

Automeris io

Callosamia promethea

Samia cynthia

 
Here's my list. I used a randomizer online. I'm leaving this up to randomness, as I have no idea. :lol:

  1. dyrocampa rubicunda
  2. actias luna
  3. automeris io
  4. callosamia promethean
  5. antheraea polyphemus
  6. samia cynthia
 
  1. dyrocampa rubicunda

actias luna
antheraea polyphemus
samia cynthia
automeris io
callosamia promethean
 
Here's my list- I also used a randomizer online since I also honestly have no idea about moth emergence! :p

  1. actias luna
  2. callosamia promethean
  3. samia cynthia
  4. antheraea polyphemus
  5. dyrocampa rubicunda
  6. automeris io
 
1- Dyrocampa rubicundra

2-Antheraea polyphemus

3-automeris io

4-Actius luna

5-callosamia promethean

6- Samia cynthia

 
ok well a dyrocampa rubicunda female emerged just now! so instead of ending the contest I am taking rubicunda off the order for now

I guessed one would emerge first and so any NEW entries don't include rubicunda

current guesses stay

so she dropped dead for some odd reason

so here's what i will do

i will accept 2 answers for the first to emerge, dyrocampa rubicunda OR whatever emerges next

if another dyrocampa emerges next then it will still just be dyrocampa
