I Know...

I know I said that I was ok taking a few days off from this blogging thing. I also said that if I had something exciting to share, I would. Today the last, big fat caterpillar finally made his way to the top of the container and started his transformation. I wasn't able to get a decent picture because of all the 'silk' that they have made. Tomorrow they will be moving, very carefully, into their butterfly pavilion. There's one that I'm a bit concerned about. "He's" the first one that grew his chrysalis. He was up there, minding his business, doing his caterpillar thing and two others crawled up next to him and literally, started poking at him like a little punching bag. He doesn't seem to be attached to the top of the container like he should be, he seems to be being suspended by the silk around him. Luckily is does say that if one should happen to not attach to the little paper in the top of the lid, that we can place it on a napkin or paper towel and it should still develop. Here's to hoping!

Oh Holli, the edd is kind of a weird thing for me. *forgive me for using lingo* Based on LMP it was 7/29, on DOC 8/4 and based on u/s (measuring 6w 4d) 8/7... so I get to drag it out for over a week, but really, I'm doing much better with it than I thought too. :)
