Caterpillars
Samuel and Hwee Leng had just passed 3 caterpillars to us from their lime tree, and we intend to watch them grow and metamorphosize into the cocoon and butterfly. Unfortunately, David had already accidentally crushed one. Let’s hope the other two grows up.
We used an old cookie jar as the tank, and covered it with a perforated aluminium sheet. The chopsticks frame serves as a form of ‘branch structure’.
Here’s a close-up on one of the caterpillars.
