the spice girls began to pupate. two were attached securely to the lid, one sticking instead to the side of the cup. two others entered pupation on the cup floor.


THE TRANSFER, AS TOLD BY C (K WAS OUT SICK):


the two floor pupae were transferred via spoon to a paper towel, where they now lay alongside the pupa that formed on the side of the cup. this third pupa started to shake during transfer, chelsie reported (this is a natural instinct to ward off predators).


the other two pupae dangle from the lid, which is now wedged vertically into the plastic log.
