Monarch, Captive-Reared
Sightings report image

Date: 10/04/2018

Number: 2

A female and male flew free today.:) The weather was 79 degrees and humid. I found them as eggs on 9/1/18, and they hatched on 10/3/18. Their story is this
.. A farmer was mowing his field, and I saw a couple milkweeds at the edge where he was headed.. We stopped the car, and I quickly checked the plants before he got there, and there were 2 eggs, and now they are two beautiful Monarchs.
About 3 hours later today, I spotted the male enjoying a neighbor's zinnias. It started to rain, but it did not stop him from eating the flowers! Then, another came by, so maybe it was the female and they can fly away together. :)
