I have counted over 40 eggs and 20 Monarch larvae in various stages on A. sublata and A. curassavica in my Tempe, AZ yard. 4 days ago I moved the largest caterpillars into a protective mesh cage outside on my patio. I added branches of the Desert (Rush) Milkweed A. sublata they had been feeding on. This morning, one of the larva had already transformed into a pupa hanging from the roof. The others continue to munch away.
