Laying Eggs in Texas
Right now, monarchs are entering Texas and laying the eggs of the next generation. The eggs will become adults after about one month and continue the journey north.
"Second adult sighting - more eggs! I took new milkweed plants outside and, when I turned my back, a monarch approached. In about 45 minutes she had laid 34 eggs. Guess I better purchase more milkweed!"
