Fantastic Mini Beasts
12th May 2019

The caterpillars have just arrived through the post, they are very small

There are 5 caterpillars if you look closely




After the bank holiday weekend they were nearly 10x the size





7 days later

They are starting to make their way to the top of the cup, where they will start to form a ‘J' shape and become chrysalides.
