The first 2 healthy monarch butterflies from my second batch. So hopefully they make it to their next destination.

I am happy to help them. Out of a grand total of 40 eggs, 3 eggs were duds, a few cats died in earlier stages and about 9 deformed chrysalis so I have 21 chrysalis left. I feel so bad for them :(

Wondering if milkweed was too potent for them?

I've got 3 or 4 healthy males hanging out in the garden waiting for some females. Too bad we are so far apart!
