Thanks! :-)

My daughter has been raising monarchs for two years now -- she has her own butterfly garden. She loves butterflies.

My daughter insists on calling them "flutterflies" because she says they OBVIOUSLY have nothing to do with butter.

She raised monarchs with her class but they released them into the wild. Her current kick is to raise and breed praying mantids. We're waiting for the third generation to hatch. Unfortunately mantids only eat live food so we also had to start breeding fruit flies and crickets...

I hate to dampen the enthusiasm of bright children but enough is enough!
