I have one chrysalis, 6 in pre-chrysalis hanging mode, and about 24 more in various stages of development from first instar to 4th instar. The milkweed I planted this year was insufficient to feed them all, (I had no expectation that a Monarch would lay eggs on extremely juvenile plants) so I set up a habitat and have been harvesting milkweed from local farmland.
Several neighbors also have many caterpillars on their property, but insufficient food material.
