Date: 06/14/2020

Number: 7

7 new Monarch chrystalis were discovered in Chrystalis form inside the butterfly netting cage. They were NOT reared in their. They were 99% reared in wild in garden. They were only placed in the safety of the cage to protect them from the red eyes flies that can lay its own larvae in a them hence killing us he Monarch larvae. When these extra large Monarch caterpillars walked away from milkweed, were found in variously places distant from milkweed, like across patio, on stucco, under patio tables and chairs, before preparing to become Chrystalis we placed them into the large safety cage.

Then in 1-3 days are he went into J position and then became Chrystalis effective today. So now we have a total of aprox 15 Chrystalis all raised wild but all Chrystalis in cage.
