Greedy Seedy found the answer! It is a skiff moth caterpillar. My sister was pretty impressed with the interest and the quick answer. Thank you all!

Thank you. I will pass the website along. There are always woods and fields to explore and more amazing creatures to find!

Thank you all for your tenacity! Backyard Chickens folk are a persistent group ! I think my sister is impressed! :celebrate:ya

Sure looks like that maybe it. I will send her this and see what she thinks. She is wishing she kept it for observation about now....

Yes.Kentucky. It looks like she may have found it in there old barn.

Without a doubt! Just when you think you've seen every creepy crawly out there...something new pops into your world!

I am starting to wonder about the chrysallis idea. Hadn't even thought about that before.

Well, at least I'm not the only one having no luck with Google...I keep thinking " If I just put in the right descriptive words..."

I haven't either. Seen a lot of strange critters but never one like this. It has definitely piqued my curiosity too!

I'm asking. My sis took pics but didn't save the actual critter. Usually can eventually find answers online but no luck yet.

Ick. Slugs are such slimy creatures. I don't think it was slimy...More reptilian looking.

No worries. I figure with all the people on here from every place imaginable...someone will know what it is!

My sister does not have chickens. She just asked because she couldn't figure it out. She tried googling without any luck. Bizarre. I told her someone on Backyard Chickens will know!

Any help identifying this little booger would be appreciated! She has three very curious boys who ate awaiting identification too! :barnie

My sister found this caterpillar that is short and snake like looking. She said it sticks to whatever you put it on but we can't figure out what it is.

March, the oh-so-unpredictable month! It teases us with spring and then slams us with winter cold, ice, and snow! You all in the Northeast in particular have been hit hard with this as of late. I have been praying for front porch swing and open windows weather lately. I 've had my fill of winter.

Yesterday I sat outside, on the first sunny day in at least 2 weeks and held one of my chickens. Aaahhh...chicken therapy, it does the heart good! And nobody understands, laughs, and shakes their head like a fellow Backyard Chickens member ! Nicely done!

That is a PERFECT way to describe it.....muttering!
