The Butterfly Garden with certificate for caterpillars is a good option if you are not sure when you will be ready to receive & raise your butterfly larvae. Watch the Miracle of Metamorphosis Up Close This educational kit gives children, students & families an unforgettable opportunity to watch caterpillars change into chrysalides & then emerge as beautiful Painted Lady Butterflies. Raise & feed your very own butterflies & then release them into the wild! The entire transformation from caterpillar to adult butterfly takes about three to five weeks. See An Amazing Transformation 5 caterpillars (a live butterfly culture) will arrive in a clear plastic cup with all of the nutritious food they need. Place the cup in a safe place away from direct sunlight. The caterpillars will remain in the cup & will eat, spin silk & grow to TEN times their original size! After seven to ten days they will hang upside down & harden into chrysalides (chrysalides are also known as pupae). Raise Your Very Own Butterflies The Butterfly Garden Habitat is a reusable, cylindrical mesh container perfect for up close butterfly viewing! When not in use it folds flat for easy storage. Once the chrysalides have hardened, gently move them to the pop-up butterfly habitat. It will take about seven to ten more days for them to complete the transformation to adult butterflies.
