Thirty-six caterpillars tore up Milkweed plant #1! We had way more than I had thought. I got a couple of cheap pop up laundry baskets for their habitat along with more milkweed. They are in their 4th 'instar' and should be in the 5th by tomorrow. Next, comes the chrysalis stage which lasts 10 days. We'll (hopefully) have plenty of monarchs to release!
Aunt Jess and Uncle Brian named the baby 'Emmalyn Grace'. We are so happy for them and really wish we were there!

Voracious little devils...their appetite must rival HZ's.
You get Monarchs...I get Woodchucks! Where is the justice?
