It is best to do a little research before jumping into a project without prior experience or knowledge. Learn what the food-plants are and search for them in your neck of the woods and fields. At least your specimens won't die of starvation while you learn the "tricks of the trade". Also make larger screened enclosures than what is provided in those kits. Butterflies need room plus you need additional space for larvae food as well as adult nectar sources.
