We had two "hitchhiking" Monarch caterpillars (instar 5) on milkweed we broght back from northern NY a couple of weeks ago. They ate voraciously for a week, then pupated within a day of each other. I left this morning for a meeting and came home to find the first one to pupate had emerged, a beautiful, big, healthy female. I will put fresh nectar flowers in the cage for her and keep her until the second one is ready to "fledge!"
