Monarch "Maternity Ward"

Further to my caterpillar pics, I thought I'd tell the rest of the story. It's Monarch butterfly season here & when they're hungry, those caterpillars will strip the plant bare then start on the branches! So, any caterpillars that have "chrysalis'd" on a leaf that's being devoured by a starving sibling, I save and tape to a "maternity ward" branch that I have inside. These guys were some of the 19 chrysalis's that I have inside (8 have hatched, 5 more will hatch today). So far I've had 4 boys & 4 girls, wonder what I'll get today!
