Escaping Caterpillars
The kids put a bunch of caterpillars in a shoe box last night. They punched air holes in the top and meticulously plugged every gap they could with napkins and tape.
Today, they opened the box, and I saw...nothing.
"Where are the caterpillars"
"They got out"
"(gulp) All of them?"
"mmmm yeah I think one small one is still in here somewhere..."
So I decided to go out and get a butterfly house - everything is enclosed, with netting and zippers.
As of this moment, I have not found any of the caterpillars. Either the dog ate them, or they are still at large. Either way, yuck.
Also reminds me of the time I felt it would be more economical to buy crickets for the gecko in bulk.... yikes.
