I just released my last Monarch of the season, a large male. I have two chrysalis and two larvae left but they are going to another monarch lady to release so I can go out of town next week. The two remaining larva both hatched on August 23rd. One is about to j-hook and the other has been dawdling and is much smaller and no where ready to j-hook. It crawled around the top of the container for a couple of days and then it appeared to be trying to spin a button and prepare to J-hook but then it stopped and checked out the milkweed then it went to the side of the container and now it's back eating again and growing. We'll see if it makes it to a j-hook or chrysalis.
