By March 14 they had really grown:
Then by March 18 they had all cocooned so we took them out of the jar and placed them in the net housing:
As of today they still haven't come out butterflies, but one of them was really shaking the other day so I expect it will happen soon. This really was a lot of fun to watch and the best part, I didn't have to feed them, all the food was in the jar, once they become butterflies we will, but we should be able to release them shortly after.
