I know from experience though, that they tend to make a mess right after they come out. You'll probably have to wash their habitat after you set them free. But they are really fun to feed, and if you put a little bit of their food on your finger and put the finger under a feeding butterflies tongue, then they will start drinking it, and often put a foot or two on your finger, and then you can gently pull away, and they'll resist at first, but you just keep gently pulling, and usually they will put the rest of their legs on your finger, and then you have a butterfly on your finger!! Its amazing how light God made them, because you can't even tell they are on there, except that you can feel their tongue hunting for more food. And BOY!! does that tickle! <br /><br />Also, its hard to get them back off, so you have to put their tongue on something besides your finger, and wait until most of their legs are off, and pull away, but often you have to try this more than once.<br /><br />Hope the tips help!<br /><br /> Kathryn<3Faith Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720383267393836584noreply@blogger.com
