We have 3 swallowtail chrysalides now. On Sunday morning, day 6, we noticed the first chrysalis had turned dark brown. Was it getting ready to emerge? Well here we are, at the end of day 8, and the chrysalis is still the same. I finally found a site that said it takes 9-11 days, which is just a little bit shorter than the monarch. We are going up North tomorrow for 24 hours. Do I risk taking it with us? I will keep you posted...
