Those greens are very tasty too, and they only cost 69p for a huge bag full.
He's a Cabbage Looper:
And this is the Moth; the Silver Y Moth:

So that is my little Caterpillar friend!
Thank you very much indeed for that link above, LPC. It helped me a lot.
I have given him a new fresh leaf from the greens, and cleaned out his tupperware container (poops! haha)
I also found a stick with some bits protruding, and cut it to about 3" and put that in the centre of the container. He likes to be underneath the cabbage leaves most of the time but when it's time to pupate, he will have something to climb on and hang from. He doesn't seem able to climb the sheer sides of the container. I watched him. But he is curious about his temporary home.
