folded lower wings on Monarch

Orlando, FL(Zone 9b)

I found a newly emerged Monarch on the ground in the rain. I put him out of the rain, but his bottom wings are folded. I checked on him over a 4 hour period.. but they never unfolded and his body stayed "full". Does anyone know if this one will survive?
