Caterpillar suckers

My husband ordered some caterpillars online which are soon to turn in to Butterflies, right before our very eyes……when I say soon……

They currently live in two plastic sealed cups on a shelf high enough from children’s reach but near enough for us to watch them grow. Very very very slowly indeed.

“They make it look much more exciting on the tv ad don’t they” said my 40 year old husband. Case closed.

If you too want to watch some very small caterpillars eat their “special food” and turn in to beautiful butterflies which you can release in to the wild and see the unrequited joy  in your children’s eyes, then click here

Our caterpillars in situ. In the larder. Nice.
