Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for December 14, 2021

The chrysalis palace.

Spinning a tall tale there

Silky smooth sales pitch.

Generally cocoons have no resale value. Any insect who would even consider moving in to a used cocoon is too cheap to actually pay anything for it.

One room, no bath. Light and airy ambience.

Location is everthing. It isn’t too close to that spider web in todays “Far Side” cartoon, is it?

Took it literally at first, wondered how and why they were growing flippers. :)

With butterfly windows?

The silk is only usable before the moth emerges. It’s a death only venture for the larva.

What elbow?

What does happen to old cocoons?
