Nope, not a book. A butterfly farm!
In the package is a little container with 5 caterpillars underneath a bunch of silk, and a "cage" to put them into once they are ready to turn into butterflies. So..to start our adventure, I thought I'd post pictures of their progress!
Here are the caterpillars as they arrived. A few of them have crawled around a bit, but for the most part they're staying underneath the silk.
It takes 7-10 days for them to enter their next stage, so hopefully soon I'll have new pics to post of them in their next stage!
The fun has just begun!! The "food" looks gross in the end. But it is so neat to watch the emerge!
ReplyDeleteI know! I've caught myself checking on them like every couple hours!
