[QUOTE="MBullock, post: 216099, member: 33994"] Horn worms are actually a pain to breed and rather expensive. You will require a large screen enclosure and a nectar feeder. The issue is sphinx moths cannot see red, so you'll have to trick by painting yellow or white around the nectar holes to simulate yellow flower petals which tells the moth where to look for nectar. They will generally lay most of the eggs on the feeder itself. [/QUOTE]
