Thanks for the confirmation Sheila. It's been warm for MN but we're due for cold temps soon. I'm a nervous wreck thinking the two "in womb" (sorta anyhow) won't get outta here in time. Why don't small cats produce small monarchs?

A second question please. Does the same 10-day transition also apply to moths? I have a chrysalis that 's been around a long time. Do all have to be attached to something and hanging to be successful?

We were really lucky with tons of butterflies and bees this year.
