He has started roaming, although he hasn't purged. We'll see.

I hope he is ok.

He never purged, so he must have done that at the garden center and he was already ready to pupate, which he did. The other 1st instar I brought home is still growing and looks healthy. I brought him inside, out of the cold, hoping he would hurry up.

My one and only monarch pupated two weeks ago. He is outside, where it has been rather cold. Should I bring him in in an attempt to hurry the process? This week is suppose to be in the 70's, so release will be no problem.
