Amanda, I'm too like most of us newbies at raising cats. We've so much to learn, but whatever effort we give the butterflies -- likes, Sheila and BCH already stated -- is a big help considering there is only a small percentile made it to fly out in the wild. I recently found some BSTs cats. 1/3 of them are now in chrysalides stages. I'm excited for their chance to be out in the garden. Today I lost two 2nd or 3rd instars. One drown and the other turned color as if spider or some wasp must have gotten to it before I brought it inside. The others happy 'campers' that have a brighter future are pictured here.

This year it maybe slow, but presently I've seen quite a few of eastern TSTs and some skippers. More Sulphers, and a mid-range orange color butterfly -- Flyboy, I hope I've got myself some monarch!
