Butterfly Bungalow -- GIANT Live Butterfly Habitat! GROW them, HOLD them, Set them FREE!

Discover the magic of metamorphosis!

First, your caterpillars will eat their own food, growing to ten times their original size.
Next, they'll hang upside-down and shed their skins to form chrysalides.
Finally, see them emerge as beautiful butterflies, completing their metamorphosis! Observe them for a few days and then release them!
Hours of educational enjoyment for the entire family!

Butterfly Bungalow includes:
• Beautiful, climb-inside Butterfly Bungalow Habitat.
• Mail-in coupon for 6 to 10 live Painted Lady Caterpillars that are delivered to your door. (NOTE: Larvae is available only in the Continental U.S. and Alaska.)
• Complete care and instruction guide bursting with fascinating butterfly facts.
  
  You have two options when mailing in your free butterfly certificate. You may check "Ship ASAP" and you will receive your caterpillars 1 to 2 weeks from time of mailing. Or you may check "Ship week of" and indicate the week you want the caterpillars mailed to you. There is an additional $5.00 required when redeeming your certificate, for shipping and handling of the live larvae.
  
  The larvae will arrive in a container with adequate food for their growth. They do not need anything other than the food provided inside the container. They start out very tiny with observable growth in size each day. In 7 to 10 days the caterpillars will make the fascinating change into the chrysalides. In another 7 to 10 days they will begin to emerge as beautiful Painted Lady butterflies. From receipt of the larvae, the entire metamorphosis takes approximately 3 weeks.
  
  The life expectancy of the Painted Lady butterfly is 2 to 4 weeks. They may be kept in the bungalow habitat and fed a solution of sugar water (instructions included). After a few days of observing your butterflies, Insect Lore recommends releasing them into their natural environment. It is safe to do so if the temperature is 55 degrees or higher. Once released, the butterflies can often be seen for several days in the vicinity of their release. If the weather is too cold, the butterflies may be kept in the observation box for the duration of their life cycle. The inside of the box may be decorated with anything natural such as leaves, twigs, and rocks.
