I have eggs. One caterpillar hatched this morning. I noticed the eggs Saturday afternoon. Some milkweed had sprouted in my lawn. And I fenced it off so I wouldn't step on it!! Who knows how long the eggs have been there. Can't be more than a few days. I saw probably 2 more monarchs flying around this weekend.

Editor's Note: Because the egg hatched on 4/22 we are estimating the date the egg was laid as 4/19. This assumes a development time of 3 days.
