Beautiful, eh? A Christmas gift from Auntie Lisa, delayed until there is at least a remote possibility of letting them go. When we got them, they were tiny little larva and now they're at least an inch long. The brown stuff at the bottom is food but all the little pieces of stuff everywhere is caterpillar poo. Poor housekeeping. They're going to turn into painted lady butterflies -- if they survive their caterpillarhood.
Sam's taken them to school twice now. The first day was soon after he got them and they spent the day in his pocket, the poor things. He brought them in today as well but he was under strict instructions that they must NOT be pocketed.

Cool! Abbie let her butterflies go over the weekend. All five of them hatched and survived
