Quoting: Oh, and don't worry about air holes.
Sheila had already put the mesh "windows" in the refrigerator container she gave me. I told her at the time I didn't think I would be raising BFs but she said to take it "just in case you need it." That's why I said she KNEW I couldn't resist. LOL. I just couldn't stand there and let those awful ants kill those cats. I'm afraid they had stung one of them already but I brought it in anyway.

DH went on a "field trip" in our pasture and found these two little gray BFs on milkweed. They were very intent on nectaring on the milkweed, I guess, so couldn't get much of a photo. I'm wondering if it would be futile to try to transplant milkweed this size in the heat ??? There are a few of them that seem somewhat different than the ordinary MW in the pasture.
