Well, there were no chrysalises when I arrived at school today and there are still no “J-shaped” caterpillars. Will there be one tomorrow? We’ll have to wait and see. This caterpillar is stretching between both sides of the cup.

We should be seeing some chrysalises soon. By the time we get back to school I wonder how many caterpillars and chrysalises we will see.

The caterpillars are really starting to get big.

caterpillar day 7

The caterpillars arrived earlier today. They eat and grow so quickly, so I will try to post a picture every day. We should have ~10 days of caterpillars before they form their chrysalides. Enjoy the photos.
