Too Early?

[MariaAA at aol.com]

Does anyone know if Cecropia moths would be emerging from their chrysalis already?

I found a chrysalis attached to a branch in a landscaping trash pile here on the URI campus several weeks ago.  Brought it into the lab, and it emerged over this past weekend.  Looks to be female.  It would be great to know if this one came out way too early, maybe because of the lab's warm temps...  Any ideas?
