He got five caterpillars
After about 10 days, they formed their crysalis. One had already emerged.
Here is a top view of the cage.
It has been so cold, we didn't want to put them out... but decided they better get out and fly before their short three week life was over. Aren't they beautiful!
Next time, we are going to get some praying mantis eggs from this cool website. Science is so fun :)

SO cool! I am so doing this for preschool next year. How fun! You are one cool mom.
Brooke,
My niece did this in her class this year..she also lives in Davis county. Weird. But she came home to report that one of the boys in her class ate his butterfly! After watching it all week, someone dared him to eat it and he did. She was so upset.
I hope that doesn't happen at your house.
The miracle of life...although, theirs doesn't last very long. :o(
Claire is doing this in her class at school to and is SO excited about it all. She would go NUTS to know you can order them and do this at home! Thanks for sharing the website.So AWESOME, Adam!
