Moving on Up

Mommy moved my caterpillars to the inside of my Butterfly Pavilion today. All five formed their chrysalids. They've been eating all that brown food on the bottom of the container since I got them. When they ate enough, they crawled to the top and hung upside down from that paper. After they all made the cocoons, we had to move them. It should be a week or two before they come out. Then I get to feed them sugar water. I sure hope they all make it to butterflies.

These are not the prettiest things at this stage in their development. Butterflies are beautiful and I know you are enjoying watching their progress.

Love,

Hey Sydney-glad you finally got the caterpillars I just know you will have fun watching them grow into beautiful butterflies. Allie and Braden really enjoyed watching them grow they had 4 to live. Now your garden is looking great. You are becoming a good little farmer girl. Keep up the good work.
