Nursery Caterpillars Make Their Cocoons

21st May 2019

We have been observing our caterpillars very carefully over the last week.  We noticed they got bigger and bigger every single day.  We created our own caterpillars using potatoes to make prints.  

Over the weekend, when the Nursery was very quiet they created their cocoons.  We placed the cocoons in our butterfly garden and we are going to watch and see how long it takes for them to nibble a hole in their cocoons and appear.  

We are all very excited!
