I had reported seeing two females within the last week that seemed to be egg laying but had only been able to find about 13 eggs. I went out today thinking that there would be the usual crescent shaped holes in leaves by now. I discovered another 14 1st instar larvae in the yard. There were some plants that had chew marks but no larvae so I believe they were taken but this was very few, maybe about 3 or 4 plants with missing larvae. I'm now raising close to 30 1st instars. Going to keep them indoors until they are a little larger before sleeving them on plants outside.
