Released one hand raised female adult Monarch in mid morning. Emerged from chrysalis 10/22/15. Raised since small instar gathered from tropical milkweed in my garden.

This is ithe last of the 16 chrysalis I had in my lepiditarium. I had 2 chrysalis that failed to develop properly. The other 14 all resulted in an emerged Monarch. There were 2 who died in the lepiditarium within 24 hours. Of the 12 Monarchs released, 9 flew high and seemed healthy. 3 did not achieve good flight ability and died.
