How do I order my caterpillars?
Order your caterpillars postage-free with the voucher by using the voucher code printed on it at the link specified. Remember to specify when you want to receive your caterpillars. You can give a desired date between March and October.

Note: we always ship the caterpillars at the beginning of the week otherwise they would be in transportation for an unnecessarily long period over the weekend. Consequently, caterpillar deliveries are usually made from the middle of the requested calendar week. You can redeem the voucher at any time of the year, however, the larvae will only be sent from mid-March to early October (depending on weather conditions).

When planning, remember:
Once you redeem your voucher, it will take about 2 weeks for the caterpillars to be delivered. You can give a desired date between March and October.
Once you have received the caterpillars, it takes about 1-2 weeks for them to pupate. About 1-2 weeks later the butterflies will emerge. At 24°C, the entire development process into a butterfly takes about 3 weeks. If it is cooler, this can take 4-5 weeks.
Not a toy!
