| Female Monarch eclosed July 23, 2019 |
For the past few summers, I have been growing milkweed and raising monarch butterflies! (AKA reliving 5th grade science class)....
Last summer I raised and released 133 monarchs!
This summer, my numbers wont be as high because the rain in the spring delayed their arrival, although my milkweed patch was spectacular! So far I have raised and released 10 (9 of these eclosed in the last 2 days) and I have about 20 more in various stages in protective custody (so that the predators don't eat them)....
