  • Music for Hatching Monarch Butterfly

    Would really like the music credits; the lyrics are a little fuzzy

    Nice job catching it busting out. Both of mine came out overnight, so i didn't get to film the emergence. I did get some pretty good footage of the chrysalis breaking out of the caterpillar skin. Search "Monarch Pupa Emerges" if you want to see it.

  • Well done!

    This was great! You not only got great footage but a stong and healthy Monarch. Mine tend to fall and develop poorly. Was your kitchen warm? I am beginning to think they need more that 80 F to form properly. Send me a note at bumbry@mac.com if you'd like to exchange techniques. RAW

    Sorry about the initial wobble...my daughter and I were racing to get the camera set up....it's stable after that. Enjoy!

    • did

      you push a stick into your daughters face the minute she was born?? I doubt it. Next time you want to film this miracle of life,go into the wilds and do it,and I hope you had the decency to return the butterfly to the wild where it belongs.

    • ignorance is not bliss.

      1. Do you have ANY idea how difficult it is to actually capture this on film?!?
      2. It was filmed for her ENTIRE kindergarten class because they were learning about the life cycle of the Monarch. And yes, I returned it to the wild.
      3. Find a hobby and stop wasting my time with your ignorant postings.
