The whole experience takes 3 to 5 weeks and ends when the butterflies are released back into nature. The kit contains a certificate, which costs £3.99 to redeem via post or the Internet. You will receive back a small container with 5 baby caterpillars and all the food they need inside. The kit has been fully endorsed by Butterfly Conservation and the caterpillars can be sent to most major European countries. Kit Contains: Re-usable Hatching Net measuring 30cm in height, Certificate for 5 caterpillars and food, Feeding Pipette and full Instructions.
Please Note: Caterpillars are only dispatched between March and mid-September and there is an additional postage charge of £3.99 for the caterpillars.
