Witness the wonder of the butterfly lifecycle with this child-and-insect friendly habitat. The 2-foot tall, reusable Butterfly Pavilion is the perfect environment for young entomologists to raise butterflies. Lightweight, durable construction makes for easy hanging. See-through mesh with zippered entry allows easy access for care and feeding, and keeps butterflies inside until you set them free. Includes Pavilion habitat, 6 to 10 butterfly larvae with special food (two cups of 3 to 5 caterpillars, as shown), and complete instructions. Notice! This kit ships with live insects! The kit with a mail-in certificate for the live critters is available elsewhere in the Insect Lore store. If seasonal temperatures are extremely hot or cold, expect a short delay in delivery to ensure the health and happiness of your live critters during transit. 6 butterflies are guaranteed to be perfect specimens. Please allow approximately 3 weeks for your larvae to develop. Available only in the Continental U.S. and Alaska. Judged “best overall” butterfly-raising kit by the Wall Street Journal, and winner of the 2004 Teachers’ Choice Award! Ages 4 & up. Remember! This kit will be shipped with LIVE caterpillars! 1812$32.99 This is the Insect Lore Store - to see all the lore, bug fun, and insectucational stuff insectlore.com has to offer, go here.
