Friday, June 5th - Caterpillars Have Arrived!




The caterpillars are in their 2nd instar, which means they have shed their skins once. The food is an artificial insect diet made for multiple species of butterflies. The diet consists of toasted soybean flour, stabilized wheat germ, sugar, vitamins and mineral salts. They are only 1 cm long. It will be fun to watch them grow.
