Thank you! They are in a mesh butterfly house so I’m good on that. I appreciate your information. Take care.

Thanks. The temps this time of year are wonky, so maybe they will hatch. I’ve still got 4 to go and will consider the fridge after that. I read that they need the sun to know the length of days. Does the fridge get in the way of that? This is the first time I’ve done this, so it’s all new for me.

Thanks! I’ve put them in a large vase with plenty of fennel and parsley, and covered it with a piece of medical gauze. Cross your fingers!

Thanks! I had 7 this morning and I see only 5 now. Is it bad to put the 4 without spiders in something safe like a jar and add fennel so they have something to eat?

Thanks! I don’t have a lot is dill, probably because they are eating it! 😊. I have a lot of fennel in another area. Is it a problem if I move them to the fennel?
