They arrived in one container with enough food to keep them going until we got them.
Each student had the opportunity to place one caterpillar into its own container. These containers were first lined with their own food supply and will allow the larva their own space for growth. Students used the paint brushes to move the larva in order to keep the larva clean and safely moved.
Most of the individual containers were placed into a secure larger container. As we received so many larva (30), some will be staying in the white basket.
We will be watching their growth closely. Students are quite enamoured by the caterpillars 💕
We will be keeping you posted.
