Please do not order this species if shipping to a different state than listed.  Your order will be cancelled.

Wild release only in Oregon

The second largest butterfly in North America, and the largest in the Pacific Northwest.  These are quite a sight!

Common in the dry desert regions in Eastern Washington and Oregon south into Mexico, the larvae feed on Chokecherry and also ornamental Ash trees.

There is one main late spring/early summer flight in Oregon, with a second smaller flight in mid-August.

Item Details:

  • You will receive one Two Tailed Swallowtail chrysalis, inspected for quality and weight before shipping.
  • Chrysalis is diapausing (sleeping through the winter for eclosion in SPRING 2026). 
  • We guarantee shipping a live chrysalis.  Because this is a live animal, there are no other guarantees after shipment.
  • We recommend ordering two (2) or more chrysalids, as occasionally one won't make it through winter/fridge.  This is rare, but does occur in nature from time to time.

General Directions on arrival:

General Directions:

  • On arrival (Around Thanksgiving/End of November), place the pupae into a sealed container and into the refrigerator. 
  • Keep in the fridge at approximately 38F, venting monthly for a few minutes and removing any visible moisture.
  • Remove from fridge in spring, about 3 weeks prior to the natural flight of this species in the region.  We typically remove Two Tailed pupae around the end of May.
  • Place pupae in pop-up tent (also available on our site) on a layer of paper towel.  Do not mist. Two Tailed pupae prefer a dry environment.
  • The butterfly should eclose (hatch) in 3-6 weeks.
  • Wild release only in Oregon.
  • There are many resources and online groups to handle questions about live butterflies and pupae care.  Send us an email if you get stuck :)

      Surface Fabric is very durable
      Size: Small, Color: Hot Pink
      Surface Fabric is very durable, but the squeaker didn't last two months. I have urged the manufacturer to find a strong more durable squeaker for their product. My dogs really enoys it when the speaker works. One of his 3 work. I have just bought two more he likes them so much. He takes it to bed every night to catch it once or twice before sleeping. Also loves to catch it a few times during the day.

      Best. Toy. Ever. For My Superchewer!
      Size: Large, Color: Skinny Green, Size: Large, Color: Skinny Green
      Best toy ever! My dog destroys toys. Usually within about 15 minutes, she has de-squeakered and defluffed them. By the second day, she has tug-of-war-ed them to shreds. From the time we got this adorable dragon out of the package, she LOVED it. She set to work. It’s been a week, and while she has dewinged him, he lost his squeaker after a few days, and he looks a bit rough, he’s still in one piece! And, we’ve had HOURS of tug-of-war with minimal rips! She’s obsessed 😍 I ordered two more today. We’ve finally found the perfect toy for my baby!

      My 90 lb. Pitbull's All-Time Fave Toy
      Size: Large, Color: Coral, Size: Large, Color: Coral
      I ordered a plethora of new toys for Bruce to keep him occupied while I am working remotely from home. Poor guy gets so bored while I'm stuck in front of my computer 8+ hours a day. All the other toys are animated, but this one is just a big floppy chewy squeaky toy. Bruce quickly lost interest in all the other chirping, hopping, and twirling toys and fell in love with "Diny". When I opened Diny and gave it to Bruce, he had the elated and surprised look of a 3 yr old at Christmas. And he stayed that happy for hours, and then each time he picked up Diny to play. Diny became his go-to toy over all others (and there are many!). It is well made out of durable fabric, and they did not stuff it full of kapoc (I hate kapoc in dogs toys!). And it is delightfully low-tech. Normally he tears a squeaky toy apart as soon as he can isolate the squeaky mechanism. But cleverly, the squeaky box is loose in the long belly so it moves from one end to the other as the toy is handled. That made it difficult for Bruce to locate it. The toy remained in good condition for 2 weeks of near constant attention by Bruce. But yesterday he zeroed in on the squeaky box and ripped Diny to shreds. I was sad to see Diny go so soon. But boy-howdy was Bruce happy with it. I'm gonna buy another because we liked it so much. And so did I : )

      This is one “under the radar” gem!!
      Size: Large, Color: Coral
      This is one “under the radar” gem!! Very strong internal squeaker and way tougher than it looks. My big 125lb Shepard-Husky mix gave it heck, then made it his new buddy. He’ll occasionally give it the business but on the whole, it’s surprisingly tough and my big boy loves it. Nice price!!

      Cute but small
      Size: Large, Color: Skinny Green
      Cute stuffy and has not yet ripped. While my dogs plays with it, the toy is a bit small for him. For reference he is 120lbs.
