I found 1 5th instar caterpillar. The common milkweed here is getting very ratty. I cut the plant off and put it a jar in my butterfly container for my 3rd grade classroom. I never get tired of watching this miracle of nature! The caterpillar was a chrysalis on 9/9/14. We are expecting freezing temperatures so that will destroy much of the food supply.
