Caterpillar Update 6 and Final

The day has come to release our Painted Lady Butterflies. We went over to Aunt Julie’s, since she had just planted a bunch of new flowers, to release them. Once released, they didn’t hang around long. https://youtu.be/MoCyebjuM-U

Caterpillar Update 5

After about 5 days in their chrysalis, the butterflies started to emerge. Three of them had a hard time getting out of their chrysalis, so they weren’t able to straighten their wings before they dried. So we only have two healthy ones. 40% survival isn’t too bad for our first time right? https://youtu.be/tnrZRS8MNyE
