I got up a 5:50a.m. and the monarchs were eclosing. One had been out for awhile from the amount of fluid on the bottom of the its container.
Another had just started eclosing and by 7 a.m. I had 5 arrivals. This is the earliest I've had them eclose. Yesterday I had 5 eclose but they didn't start until almost 11 a.m. Yesterday was much cooler and dryer today is overcast but it is warm and more humid outside and in the house. Yesterday went to the girls, I released 4 females and 1 male. Today I have 4 males and 1 female. They have been moved to a large butterfly cube to finish drying and wait out the weather.
