## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is mid august to late to order?**
A: If temperatures are above 90 degrees we recommend waiting for cooler temps!

**Q: Do you need a mesh tent if you are planning on releasing them?**
A: Yes, adult butterflies should not be kept in a small box

**Q: Do you have to have a mesh tent for them?**
A: Once the caterpillars turn into chrysalis and are about to hatch into butterflies. You will need a mesh cage for the end of the butterfly lifecycle.

**Q: How many days does it take for them to hatch from when you receive the caterpillars?**
A: We received our caterpillars on the 10th and they formed their chrysalis on the 22nd.  It is supposed to take 10 - 14 days from then for the butterflies to appear.  So total should be around 3 - 4 weeks.
From the video, you can see when the chrysalis was forming.  Very informative and exciting to watch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by T***Y on 15 October 2023*

Caterpillars, those small and seemingly insignificant creatures, have an enchanting world hidden beneath their tiny, wriggling bodies. My recent experience observing caterpillars has left me in awe of nature's extraordinary transformations. **Pros**: 1. **Metamorphosis**: The life cycle of a caterpillar, culminating in its transformation into a butterfly or moth, is nothing short of miraculous. Watching this metamorphosis unfold is a captivating journey that brings a sense of wonder to both children and adults. 2. **Biodiversity**: The diversity among caterpillar species is astonishing. From striking colors to intricate patterns, caterpillars come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, making them a joy to discover in nature. 3. **Educational**: Observing caterpillars is an excellent way to introduce kids to the concepts of life cycles, biology, and ecology. It provides an opportunity for hands-on learning and instills an appreciation for the natural world. **Cons**: 1. **Short Lifespan**: Caterpillars have relatively short lifespans in their larval stage. This might be disappointing for those who become attached to their little companions, but it's an integral part of their life cycle. In conclusion, caterpillars are nature's enchanting storytellers, weaving tales of transformation and resilience. These humble creatures have the power to instill awe, curiosity, and respect for the natural world. My experience with caterpillars has been nothing short of magical, and I encourage everyone to take a moment to observe these remarkable beings in their journey of life.
