Of the original 100 and some, I ended up with 4 survivors. I lost close to 80 of them in 1 24 hour period when disease swept through all the containers. After that I had about 10 left. In the final stages here, it has been hard to keep them alive. On Monday, one of them spun a cocoon and 2 more are definitely ready to do so going by their size. The other remaining one is substantially smaller, so probably will continue to feed for a while yet.
