I first saw about 10 eggs the first day. Then, within the next week I saw, & brought inside to my porch, 22 more. I was overwhelmed. But, I felt guilty leaving them outside as there was a wasp slowly flying around the plants.
Out of the 32 eggs, 26 emerged, so I�m not sure what happened to some of the eggs.
I released the last of the Monarchs on March 8th. There were 15 females & 11 males.
There was some very cool weather during their caterpillar stage, (about 48�) so I brought the caterpillars inside for several days.
I have been raising Monarchs for about 2 years now & never get tired of releasing them & watching them flit away w/their newfound freedom!
