Monarch, Captive-Reared

Date: 09/05/2017

Number: 1

My last monarch for the summer, B10, the smallest of the bunch. Pupated August 24, eclosed September 5 in the evening. Too cold and windy to release so kept her overnight. Tried to release her September 6 but she would not go. Sat on my hand. Finally put her on a coneflower had she ate. By evening she had not left so brought her inside again. Trying to release today September 7, but she has limited strength to fly. Will bring her in again tonight and try to feed with nectar or sugar water. Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated to help her on her way to Mexico.
