Anna has been waiting everyday this week for the mail to arrive hoping to get a small package in the mail. Finally today Anna received her butterfly larvae or caterpillars today in the mail. In about a week according to the instructions they should start forming chrysalids. We will keep them in the sealed cup until after all the chrysalids have formed and then we will move them into the butterfly habitat. I’ll keep you posted on how our Painted Lady butterfly science project is going.
An interesting fact about Painted Lady Butterflies….they taste with their feet.
