I just found out about this sight today from a neighbor. I have a patch of milkweed and have raised and release 14 monarch butterflies since late July. I released one more today. As well, I have 1 large caterpillar and 2 crysalis left. Last year I started taking them in when I realized that everything seemed to be eating the eggs and tiny caterpillars. I was able to release 13. This year I noticed that my milkweed has more predators. I have not seen any actually develop in the patch but may have just missed them. Last year I saw one develop on it's own in one garden where only 2 milkweed grow.
