Educational Caterpillar Supply 12 Live Caterpillars - Three Rearing Cups

12 Painted Lady Caterpillars at the early larvae stage shipped in 3 cups with food. The intended life cycle experience is to watch caterpillars grow and go through metamorphosis. Caterpillars are shipped when they are in their first week of life. They will stay in the rearing cups and eat the artificial diet until the chrysalis stage is reached. When they are in the chrysalis stage they can be moved to a larger hatching environment or left in the cups. When butterflies emerge in the cups they need to be quickly released. Butterflies that emerge in a larger environment can be kept if feeding occurs within 24 hours of emergence. *Teachers- Please email if you have special shipping requests to fit around your lesson plans.
