The dried leaf cocoons that have been in the frig since Christmas had to be soaked in water for about 30 seconds to moisturize. We then used a needle and thread to attach and suspend them (hopefully head side down) to a branch that fits neatly in our butterfly habitat. Now, we wait 3-4 weeks misting as necessary to keep the cocoons moist and soft--not crispy dry.
