GROWING OUR OWN BUTTERFLIES AT HOME | INSECT LORE

[@dazzlingdee1694]

I remember doing this in biology class. A week later I found a praying mantis egg casing so I took it into class. Over a long weekend scholl break they hatched & when we walked into the classroom there was little tiny pray mantis everywhere! The teacher told me that since I was the one that brought them in I was the one that could open the window so they could all find their way outside. I could swear there had to be between 200-500 of them that hatched! 😂👍

I just did this with my daughter! We just let the butterflies go yesterday. She loved it! We actually saw a butterfly in the yard today, she thinks it was one of hers!🦋🐛

[@TheMoranFamily]

It’s so fun! 🦋 The girls are already asking to get more 😅

[@lilianadiazm62]

YAYA 🎉

[@tikiscustoms]

This video is way better than the info that came with the kit! Thank you for this!! My youngest got to see other children being careful with the caterpillars, so clutch for the visual learner. Thank you!

[@jetsetter08]

For sure came to KZbin for directions i can follow!

[@reneejanieworrell2437]

I'm 48 lol and my hubby and I lost twins and released butterflies 🦋 eveytime we see one we think of them so now we decided to experience there life cycle and release. loved the video

[@lunakorayner]

I’m so sorry you experienced that. What a beautiful thing you two did !

[@kealydoll6763]

Oh I did this with my boys, it's so fun! Insect lore is about an hour away from us. They have a super neat store too. 🦋

[@Megarockswell]

This is a great idea.. trying this with my baby girl this weekend. I love the idea of printing out the life cycle and anatomy of the butterflies for further understanding. Thank you guys 🙌

[@sarahcarter-ali4096]

You are a great mum 😘 I'm 47 I grew up with the hungry caterpillar book, I read it to my three children and even as young adults they still remember it! A great book for learning ❤️👍

[@TheMoranFamily]

Thank you. The book I was reading to them was actually my Hungry Caterpillar book from when I was a child. My mom saved a lot of my books so I love reading them to the girls 😊

[@joshd370]

GREEEEEEEEAT job kids! We need more people like you to save the population.

[@happyandfree11]

Awwww😍😍😍😍such a beautiful mommy daughter’s moment at the end. 🥲

[@annahuynh1895]

How was the first grade my teacher, Miss Eby bought a butterfly set and it was when they went to caterpillar to butterfly when we released them. The last one went on one of my classmate on her red dress

[@tekinaadams2959]

What beautiful moments! Thanks for sharing!

[@sketchtheparadigmyork1217]

I get black swallowtails in my garden all the time so I’ve been researching how to take care of them… not I get videos like this on my recommended 😂 I do feel a bit silly as a 25 year old taking care of caterpillars but they really are pretty fascinating to observe as they change! And they’re good for the flowers and support the food chain so hey, there are sillier hobbies out there right?

[@karendickens8970]

Hello what did the catapillars look like?

[@angeloddrev]

Our pollinators need all the help they can get, there is no age to raising butterflies ♥ Some of the greatest helpers of the butterfly colonies I've made friends with are older men such as my grandparents age and it's wonderful to enjoy them and help at any age. I don't think anyone judges 25 is still a baby lol

[@hiochiv]

I just got mine right now! And I’m really happy with it so far I hope they grow up to be amazing! 🍃🐛🦋

[@mrs195827]

Great video . Your Children are adorable . Great project ! my kids have grown up and now we’re doing butterflies with the grandkids.One thing we did that might add to this is we let the butterflies go in a bedroom and let them land on us. then we let them go. 😊🦋

[@annahuynh1895]

You have to be quiet because quiet, they will open their wings 😊

[@hugoroma-qr5qi]

guys , is the monch caterpillar sting you? because i don't know

[@kathleenk6120]

Just ordered this for my daughter ! How long does it take for them to turn into butterflies? ❤️

[@em1lyxox]

around 13 days,

[@raventail4725]

One month

[@ashleighwills8214]

How long did it take to hatch please mines been 3 days and they haven't moved 😕

[@catherinejohnson9003]

That was so lovely for the girls to do 😀👍

[@marilynpeetz521]

I just got our caterpillars on Thursday! They are so healthy! They are crawling around eating ect.. I’m excited for them to hatch and become butterflies!! This is awesome that they do this for kids! Did you do the ladybugs yet?

[@onlymesamieb9772]

What do they eat?

[@angeloddrev]

@@onlymesamieb9772 They come with the food supplied in the cup. It's the brown paste at the bottom. Painted Lady caterpillars will eat milk thistle / hollyhocks etc if you find them without buying the tubs with food in.

[@Babynameinspiration]

Rory's little video is tooooo cute 💞💞

[@muthanaalamry2004]

So sweet you did this 👏👍

[@mariac.6425]

You're such a sweet mom!🦋🦋

[@marquisebrooks8314]

Does the container they come in have holes for them to get air?

[@RobTheBob808]

Such good parents

[@LeaGril-p8f]

my caterpillar is brown and hase yelow stripes and darke bbrown stripes and black spots

[@hippoika]

Thank for this video! Very insightful 🥹🥹🥹 how long was the process over all?

[@efmaster2805]

What did you guys feed at well the butterflies not the caterpillars pillars I know they eat that stuff at the bottom I'm talking about when they turn into butterflies

[@ernestgarrison2029]

I'm growing butterflies with my daughter. 🐛🦋

[@MerlyCosta]

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

[@ThisReyesSchoolHouse]

Can’t wait to do this during our life cycles unit! So cute!

[@thealternative9580]

You should think about starting a butterfly garden.

[@arryjassal]

Ours turned 🦋 last night n just wondering if i should release them out.. It was really hot today 17. C.. honestly they are gorgeous i don't want to let them go 😂

[@TheMoranFamily]

It’s recommended to release them on a warm sunny day below 90 degrees. You also want to release them as soon as possible after hatching. Within a week in their habitat your butterflies will begin to mate and lay eggs. They can lay up to 300 eggs 😅

[@NextGenPartners]

wow super!!!

[@yukichan8107]

Omg did she just put a ❤️on my comment

[@jadenstewart3206]

You can keep them forever❤

[@Midnight_Baby]

I received my tiny caterpillars today. Do I feed them leaves? What do I do?

[@TheMoranFamily]

No you don’t have to feed them. They come with food in their container.

[@sigomy333]

Love your video! Very helpful! TY🙏😀

[@wj5mjk]

So sweet you did this

[@dkglez22]

Can you link the printable for the life cycle of the butterflies?

[@Hipoop4]

So I will stick in a tender garden because i'm a kid so reset goodbye to the wendy buckland in the butterfly land

[@YOriginalY]

I need help!! My 7th butterfly is out of his shell (I don’t now the right word for it in English) when I wasn’t at home and I noticed that he has some of the shell (/skin I don’t know) on his head and he tries to take it off but he can’t. What should I do? And I need to release them tomorrow because I am for two weeks not home

[@em1lyxox]

right, you dont feed them oranges, acording to the pack it comes with a bowl with sugar packs, you put in water and Boom food done those oranges are for wild butterflys. No hate

[@TheMoranFamily]

I actually got the idea from their social media as well as their website. It says you can put their sugar water on fruit 😄

[@Ih8ketchup]

There website says you can do sugar water and Juicy Fruits..these are wild butterflies, they will be released after 3 days from hatching

[@rugerboyks6288]

I’m kind of worried :( they sent us 6 instead of 5 and we are on day 10 and they are pretty big and they haven’t started their cocoon process and I’m worried if they maybe don’t have enough room :(

[@patriciacarroll6520]

That's crazy I have the same 4 butterflies are have already hatched on the same day I'm watching this There is still 2 more Chrysalis But when The caterpillars Formed chrysalis I was on vacation It was an awesome surprise when I got back Also my caterpillars had shed their Skin After they formed Chrysalis But I didn't have a caterpillar that had all of it in The chrysalis Also when I changed it I was afraid that they will fall too But that he didn't have a caterpillar that fell But I didn't use the Thing that you hung The cap We just attached the lid to the top of the butterfly House thingy And I hung it up in my room Also Also the 1st butterfly that hatched was overnight I bet I bet both of them will hatch overnight Again And if not The probably They will probably hatch after Work I bet the girls were so memorized By them I can't wait to see all the butterflies🐛

[@patriciacarroll6520]

Plz notice

[@brisalaguna907]

How long does this take?

[@sophiegaming5062]

How long should you keep them before letting them go? ❤❤

[@TheMoranFamily]

You should only keep them for a few days. After about a week your butterflies will start to mate and can lay up to 300 eggs 😅

[@marilynpeetz521]

I want to see them lay eggs ect.. is there a way we can do that? And keep them healthy while doing it?

[@gemstoneprincess2890]

[@tessawing9524]

Do I feed them as catapillars

[@TheMoranFamily]

No! The stuff that comes in their cup is their food.

[@Selena.memmess]

are the butterflies included?

[@Julia-nn6tz]

No you have to order them :)

[@yukichan8107]

I’m gonna get them

[@patriciacarroll6520]

I got the same

[@lilianadiazm62]

🦋🐛

[@Ih8ketchup]

I don't think you drop the sugar water onto the fruit, on the website it says to drip onto a sponge for them to drink.

[@bulletproofmum]

Either is fine, they'll take the natural sugars from the fruit also
