Insect update:
The butterflies have all emerged from their chrysalises. Two already died. Two from the other class already mated. Oo la la!
The mealworms and beetles are all over the place. Some are still mealworms; some are in the pupa stage; some are beetles. The beetles are starting to eat the mealworms. Something--maybe swine flu?--hit the pupa, which are dropping off like flies. One even had a hold in its head.

That is cool. Our class one emerged this morning. It was so exciting to watch. My 5 year olds loved it, Here in NZ we have the monarch butterfly.
