I rigged up a wood block with holes drilled in it at different angles and then put chopsticks in the holes, works perfectly. I cut a tight woven piece of material to place beneath the lid and tank so no predators can get at them. The three BST's are going into chrysalis now. I just collected three more new babies and put them in also. Everybody seems to be happy. There are still more eggs yet to hatch on the fennel, I may be making a fennel run. LOL

The GST's just hatched today, those are my favorite. There should be enough food for them as I have 5 patio citrus for them. I am definitely going to cover them up though, that darn Mockingbird spotted them last year and took them all. NOT ON MY WATCH!

Thanks for your help all, and Sheila if you read this....its all your fault for teaching me!
