Monarch, Captive-Reared
Sightings report image

Date: 09/18/2018

Number: 1

We reared a second healthy female monarch from an egg!

We collected two eggs from our garden plot in the Schuylkill River Park Community Garden (SRPCG) on August 25th, 2018.

Both eggs hatched indoors on the 28th minutes apart. This monarch, Sproles, pupated on September 10th, while the other pupated on the 9th.

Sproles eclosed on September 18th, 2018 and was released the same morning at SRPCG.

The photo attached (Mom took this photo! :-D) is of Sproles emerging from her chrysalis, which was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, in our home a few blocks away from SRPCG on the 18th.
