For several years, I have raised multiple caterpillars. But this year, they all don't seem to be able to finish shedding their skin. The thin layer that covers their head gets pushed forward, but doesn't fall off, in this way inhibiting their ability to eat. One has already died. I got all of them at the same group of milkweed. Could it be that some sort of spray was sprayed when they were eggs? Is it something I am doing? I don't know. But they will probably all die soon if I don't get something figured out...
