I believe science belongs to everyone, and I won't be satisfied until you believe it too.

@NancyHibbs2 Don't give up!
The liquid likely dried by now, and that seals the chrysalis.
It *could* be that bacteria got in there, and that can cause problems. Also, if too much fluid was lost, that can cause problems.
BUT, I've had two come out of this situation just fine. Small, but fine.

Truly, if you've never seen the #IodineClockReaction before, it is a MUST SEE.

Dramatic, startling...a crowd pleaser!

@FAM631a I was not seeing any in Michigan around this time. Not usually much going on for me after the first week of October.

ICYMI: If you're #RaisingMonarchs this season and wish to do some data analysis at the end, gotta collect some of that data now. Don't get to the end and wish you had taken numbers.
Here's how I do it as just one example of a way to do so:

@madroooga I would agree with that assessment. Not sure if wings are too far gone for a type of transplant, but am sure that if so, it's beyond my area of knowledge on how to correctly do it. I haven't done such before. Looking into learning how, but didn't have any that needed it this year

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@suemsie If it's a time when the chrysalis should be separated from the Monarch, and it's not, assistance of the very careful type can be used.
Sorry that I'm not on here daily and didn't see this until now. How did it turn out?

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@michmichcookie There's a column for "wild" versus home reared. So, while the data for the wild is more valuable to them, the data from home reared still has value.

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@sarah_osmond Very beautiful! Thanks for using the information and putting in the work!

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@ticaxsiempre1 Looks like color coded dates?
Very cool!

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@psherbe They should be done laying eggs by the end of the month. By then, you could cut it back/remove it. However, if they are producing seed pods, you may wish to harvest those first, which is more like early to mid October.

Awesome logo!

Inspired by & dedicated to @MrLundScience
Thanks for all of your hard work & efforts to raise awareness & help make a difference for the Monarch Butterfly.
Oh yeah! And for the awesome wardrobe of t-shirts, dress shirts & ties too! 😉

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@_emilywayland @TheGreatMueller Thanks Emily. Much appreciated.

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

Brand new!
#RaisingMonarchs takes a look at breeding, and why I don't do it. (Officially, I'm neutral on the subject.)
If you're thinking about breeding, this might help you see what risks exist, and why it might be best to take a pass.

[Rich Lund @MrLundScience]

@FAM631a I remain skeptical. Have never heard of this before, but also, admittedly don't pay too much attention to any other butterfly than Monarchs.
What was your source for this information?
