Most of my caterpillars hatched on Thursday morning, and then they spent a long weekend with Auntie Coleup, who graciously babysat them while I was out of pocket for a few days. I picked them up today to find them fat and big--and the first one is now a chrysalis!

Here are pics of the chrysalis and some of the caterpillars!

I've looked at the milkweed again, and I've found some little holes where baby caterpillars most likely ate after hatching, but alas no caterpillars--not a single one could I find. :-( Glad I got these babies safely inside as newly-laid eggs!!
