Monarch Larva Sighted

I had a chance to check on some of the milkweed in the pastures today for about an hour before it started to rain. It was around 70 degrees F and was overcast from 3-4pm. I found 21 monarch eggs on milkweed (mostly on individual plants). I also saw 12 larvae, mostly 1st and 2nd instars, with one being a 3rd instar I think. Inside, I have been raising the 10 larvae I brought in before the bottom land flooding on April 18th. Five of those are now in chrysalis form and the other five are 4th and 5th instars.
