For Easter the kids received a butterfly house and we ordered our caterpillars the next week. They came in this special jar with little holes in the top and food in the bottom. They grew and ate and ate and grew for @ 7 days. Then they turned into pupas...
They stayed in their cocoons for another 7-10 days. We woke up one morning to find 5 "painted lady" butterflies!!! We enjoyed watching and feeding them. It was eventually time to set them free.
We hope you found a good home...good-bye little butterflies
