Butterfly Project: Butterflies!

These painted ladies seem to be metamorphosizing more quickly than our kit led us to believe they would! Two butterflies have already emerged! The Lone Star Baby put some seeds from our Texas Lantana from the butterfly garden in the butterfly home in case they decide to lay eggs before we release them. She put some orange halves and red carnations dipped in sugar water in the butterfly home for them drink from. Very cool to see them in there.

Exciting! This would be a great project in our own home, except for the matter of the cats. Someday...
