The chrysalis of the others that haven't emerged are not on the same timing maybe a day, even a week later. I think that is what you are asking. Spritz them with water and see if they wiggle, if so they are very much alive(if not, may still be ok though). After another week look closely and see if you notice a hole in the chrysalis, if so it may be from being parasitized when they were outside. That is one of the biggest reasons I bring the cats in as early as possible, even as eggs sometimes. Here is what I am talking about.
