Caterpillars are still eating and growing

Here are some more photos and a video of the caterpillars.




They are quickly eating everything I put in the jar. We all enjoy watching them eat.


Monday - Aug 25


Tuesday - needed to replace milkweed


Wednesday - they were eating fast, and I had to replace milkweed, again!


Robert and Abby watching them eat.


Thursday - Aug. 28th

I believe they have reached their full size and will soon form their chrysalis.

They do grow very quickly. It is fun to watch. They are in the egg only 4 days. After they hatch it is only two weeks until the form a chrysalis. One of them started their chrysalis last night!
