Butterfly Raising Kit

What fun to watch butterflies grow, then let them go! Your kid can raise 3 to 5 Painted Lady butterflies while learning all about metamorphosis with this award-winning butterfly raising kit. See each caterpillar’s transition as it matures, changes into a chrysalid, and finally emerges as a Painted Lady butterfly. Absolutely safe to release into the environment.

The kit includes a colorful pop-up habitat suitable for hanging or free-standing on a countertop, a coupon for 3 to 5 butterfly larvae, plus special food, a feeding kit and complete instructions.

Remember! This kit doesn't contain any live insects, but contains a mail-in coupon for the live critters.

Three butterflies are guaranteed to be perfect specimens. Please allow approximately 3 weeks for your larvae to develop. During extremely hot or cold weather, delivery of live larvae may be delayed. Available only in the Continental U.S. and Alaska.

Ages 4 and up.
