Well I released 10 monarchs in the last 3 days. There were 8 females and 2 males. I really thought that was the end of raising of caterpillars this season but to my amazement I was sitting in the back yard this afternoon and a pair of monarchs were feeding on the butterfly bush. Within 10 minutes they were mating in the air and the female began to lay eggs on the milkweed in the yard. I will wait till this evening to collect the eggs and start all over again. I will post later how many eggs I collect.
