I was blessed in getting to raise a Variegated Fritillary once after seeing it’s cat on a Pansy one spring. I caged and fed it flowers until it formed a chrysalis, and it is gorgeous! But Ivy they don’t have to dry, because their wings aren’t wet. They are limp and have to hang to harden straight. Be careful and don’t move them in this stage because if the wing is crimped in a fall, it hardens that way.
