Eggs on raspberry - Thyanta custator

Eggs on raspberry - Thyanta custator
Alameda County, California, USA
August 2, 2011
After picking the raspberry, I noticed the 28 eggs. I filled the cavity of the berry with wet cotton to extend freshness and kept the berry in a ventilated jar in a room that approximates outdoor temperatures.

How long did it take for them
How long did it take for them to hatch? I'm trying to hatch some I found on a blackberry.

 
8 days after I found them
All the photos are dated. Hatching began on August 10. I don't know how old the eggs were when I collected them.

Wow!
Didn't see this series before. Had to leave a comment. Great job!

I'll add it to buglifecycles.com. Thanks!
