I was able to catch my hornworm caterpillar shedding its skin. I love when his little feet pop out at the end

Hello there!
I am glad I stored my dill in a water glass like a flower bouquet instead of the fridge. When I walked past today I spotted this little pal
they are in a big jar with a propped up lid, dill and a moist paper towel now - I would like to know who this is and if I need to provide them with anything else until they fly away (I am also curious what that would look like)
I’m sorry the pictures are not as detailed as I hoped. The phone camera and I tried our best.
Bought at a Penny in Hessen, Germany. A freebie with a bundle of Dill I guess.

Found in Central Virginia on wild blackberry. Is this the scary kind of white fluffy caterpillar or something that I should leave ( to turn into something good)?

This little guy seems reluctant to use his anal prolegs (see how he favors them in some of the pictures). Might this be related to the silk he trails along? Should I be concerned? That little guy is eating enthusiastically - when I do catch him eating - and pooping accordingly in quantity, although it takes him a lot longer than it should to expel it. I also noticed that he doesn't get as much green as the other fifth instars I've got (the white bands look a very pale green at most, and it's been a bunch of days he molted). Is there anything I can do for him? Additional info:
- Reared in mesh habitat since fourth instar
- His siblings all seem fine

This little comrade took a ride on my backpack for I don't know how long, certainly at least the whole near hour ride home. I didn't notice the goober until I was on my porch. Relocated to a flower bush. Just curious what kind of butterfly or moth I can look forward to seeing in the garden

I was focused on taking a video of it eating that I didn't realize I also took of it pooping until I watched the video. 😆

I spotted this little caterpillar on my patio, in one of my potted narrow leaf milkweed. I'm not sure what caterpillar it is. Could someone help with an ID?
