Here's the little chrysalis hanger with 4 BSTs. I still wonder why some turn green, and some turn brown. It isn't after all because of what they pupate on, you can see the one here in the pic closed in on a parsley branch and is brown. the other 4 closed on the top which was black.... still curious about that if anyone knows.

I like the all around screen box for hanging them, the elastic string can be easily thraded through the holes and tied to the top. When they eclose, they can grip easy with their new legs too, so there is no danger in bending their wings.
