Until the week before camp, we could not find any Monarchs at all. We saw a few flying, but no caterpillars or eggs. Just before camp I had 5Â Monarch caterpillars. When I got back I found 48 more!
Today I had three of my Monarchs emerged! All three of them are girls.
Right now I have
- 3 Butterflies
- 8Â chrysalises
- 50 Monarch caterpillars, all sizes and
- 20Â eggs
I hope to raise over 100 Monarchs this year!!! 
P.S. Â Today I found 9 Eastern Black Swallowtail eggs and 5Â Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillars that are really little. Â I hope we caught them before parasitic wasps did!
Some beautiful pictures
