I have seen a very faded female laying eggs in my tropical milkweed. I had 50 chrysalis before this sighting. I am running out of milk weed. Half of the chrysalis have hatched and all but one male successfully took off. He had his front feet in a spider web and didn't full open his wings. I have several larva in various stages and new pupae daily. Wish I had more milk weed. Also flowers in bloom are lacking so I'm setting out cut oranges and cantaloupe. We has zero last year, this is such a blessing!
