We're raising butterflies!

Week 1:

July 25 - The caterpillars arrived in the mail.  They didn't do much, but they did eat the brown stuff in their cup.

July 26 - We thought that one of the caterpillars was dead because it wasn't moving.  We also saw caterpillar poop in their cup.

July 27 and 28 - The caterpillars got bigger, but we missed them molting. They were not moving very much though.

July 29 - Two of the caterpillars were shoving each other on the wall of the cup. They were all moving!

July 30 - One of the caterpillars started to form a chrysalis.  The other caterpillars exercised around it. It looked like they were trying to knock it down.

July 31 - All five caterpillars were forming chrysalises.
