Unpacking Your Butterfly Pupae (Chrysalides)

Each of the pupae is snugly wrapped in soft tissue. The soft tissue is covered by a layer of cotton. The layer of cotton is encased in a structure of Styrofoam that reinforces the cardboard shipping box. This multi-layer packaging gives a high degree of protection to the pupae while greatly simplifying your efforts to unpack them safely.

Our approach to packing is designed to keep the pupae from getting entangled in any of the protective shipping materials, such as traces of cotton.

Virtually all the pupae from El Bosque Nuevo are shipped to conservatories or exhibits but we remind those who receive and unpack the pupae of the usual precautions:

The pupae should be allowed to emerge in a constant temperature of 80 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit…or 26.6 to 28.8 degrees Celsius;
The humidity should be a constant 80%;
The pupae should not be exposed to direct sunlight;
And, of course, be ultra-alert for predators.

Do not hesitate to contact us for assistance or more information with regard to unpacking the pupae. We are ready and willing to help you.
