I recently released about 55 or 60 adult monarchs that I reared from eggs found on the milkweed plants growing naturally around my home. They should be among the migrators, and although they are not tagged, I am trying to do my part each summer and I rear roughly 100 or so to adulthood and set them free. Generally I have at least 50 for the fall migration. I only had 3 losses this year, 2 in chrysalis and 1 trying to pupate, so it has been a good year so far. I hope this helps.
