Observation notes: I was walking and found these 3 caterpillars that look identical and I’ve searched everywhere and can’t find anything. They looked unique so I brought them home. They were not get next to bush just crawling. They are eating the leaves and flowers I put in the area I have them and they are fine. Haven’t some anything out of the ordinary.
