Thank you Debra!
I'm very impressed with your beautiful courtyard too! If your like me you've been planning way (years) longer than the groundbreaking. So it makes me very thankful for faith and time working together. It has been a revolutionary process.
I appreciate you watching and sharing along with me:-)

To answer your questions...In Spring and Summer I'd rather leave the chrysalids in the gh in containers I can hang them in. This way they are exposed to elements as naturally as possible. I so need to build one, but for now I have a mesh zipper hamper for live cats, and working on new ideas as I go to build one with compartments. Peggy posted a great one in her thread yesterday that is a great model.
Then there is the thread TPP (Cat) posted last year with tons of great cat cage ideas you can re-live with us.

Going to the butterfly fest will be fantastic, be sure to share that!

Here is a pic of them this morning in the gh after hours of rain last night. There are 4 GFrits in the small one, and 1 BST just went into his and I need to hang him in the small cage with the frits. The little bag on top is a chrysalis from last October that hasn't eclosed from hibernation yet.
