Unexpected

We have fixed up a container to use for the caterpillars and I but it out on the porch. We had a bit of a dip in temperature and some rain and when I went out to check most of the littlest caterpillars had fallen off the anise. I took a guess and brought them inside where it is warmer, gave them some fresh anise and laid it on top of them. I went back in an hour to check and was very releaved to find all of the babies had climbed onto the anise and were eating. I think I'll keep the little ones inside for a few more days & give them a better chance.
