I have raised and released about 150 Monarchs this year. I have two remaining to be released. Today (10-8-2019) one eclosed; it's a female. It was late in the day and when I put her on tropical milkweed blooms, she just stayed there for several hours. About 6pm I brought her inside, fed her a honey-water solution, put her back in the aquarium and covered it with towels to be dark. I will feed her again first thing in the morning and release her.
There is one remaining chrysalis which I expect will eclose about Oct. 10 or 11.
