LOTS of them!


It's sort of difficult to see in the pictures but all of the white dots or bumps on the leaves and stems of this little plant are eggs. This is from 1 day and it appears we have 2 pairs of butterflies (with a third wheel that may be another girl) laying. The butterflies should live about 1 more week and now that they have started laying eggs I'm not sure what to do with them all. I had planned on releasing all but 1 after the first batch of eggs but a cold spell hit and they can't be released right now. I'll just have to watch so that we don't have caterpillars EVERYWHERE in 3-5 days.
I'll try and keep you posted.
DS#2 has managed to fracture his foot and tommrow we will be calling the Orthopedic Surgeon, he may get a cast. It could be an interesting week!
