Looks like our contraption is working- the black bucket, which Rylo and I refer to as the "puparium" had a minumum temperature of 24.4C. That's definitely in the 'happy' range.

We only had two adults emerge today, and both had issues with wing formation. For some reason, about 10% of our adults have wing issues, a fact which we attribute to a lower humidity. Hopefully the new environment we have created is more regulated and we will not see too many more of these gimpy adults.

We will expect a large emergence soon, as today is day 13 after 84 larvae pupated (on 2 August).
