Yeah, one hatched in the end of winter and felt bad about that guy, guess he got too warm, my fault.

BUT I just pile on new things and it gets kinda hard to keep up.

Did get the neighborhood kids doing it too so they are hatching them out too. Mostly the Painted ladies you buy on line.

They are too young to go and find the caterpillars and raise them all the way its a job.

But hey plant dill or fennel that's what they eat. Also cherry trees and Magnolia trees, plus make sure you have water for them too.

They like to suck on rocks in the morning as this gives them minerals to live/grow.

See almost no Yellow swallowtails anymore don't know why, and Monarchs are rare to see too.

Man used to see Monarchs all the time as kids.

Sorry for the delay on this light fix but it has warmed up and man we got a TON to do.
