Angel Shade Moth Crysalis re-location

[Mildmonkey]

Hi folks

I think I have found what is probably an angel shade moth crysalis on a wall (it was under a flower pot that I moved) - was just wondering where is the best place to put it? I have put the flower pot back for now but it needs to go soon - Any ideas of where it would be best suited?

Thanks

If it is a mahogany colour it is likely angleshades which pupate just under the soil surface or in rubbish on the soil. Put it somewhere sheltered where mice or birds cannot get at it and it should be ok. Alternatively keep it in the house in a container with some sticks for it to climb and expand its wings. It should hatch very shortly and then you can release it. They are beautiful colour when they have just emerged.
