They last about a month in the fridge. Take out the amount you want to hatch out and place them near your heatlamp. The warm temps will help speed the hatching process. Take about 24 hours for the pupae to hatch, but you might have a few hatch within a hour or two, with almost all hatching out after 48 hours at room or warm temp.
