Would purchase again
This was super fun for my pre-k class. 8 out of 10 of them turned into butterflies. I would recommend getting the lid holder log too. I did not and the butterflies emerged inside the little cups. It was cramped.

6/10 caterpillars did not survive
6 out of 10 caterpillars did not survive and it's been a week and have not received confirmation of replacement from the company via email and could not get a hold of customer service via phone.

All 20 have survived! Might come faster than expected so be prepared
Came faster than expected. All the caterpillars made it into their cocoon and so far one butterfly has come out. I do this every year with my preschool class and sometimes we get a few that don't make it but I purchased 4 cups, 20 total, and so far, so good!!

Nice experience for a child to watch the development of a butterfly.
The purchase indicated 10 caterpillars, but there were only 7 that seemed to survive and turn into butterflies. It was enjoyable to watch, but a bit disappointing that we did not have 10 develop to maturity to let free.
