She Won't Stop!

17 years ago

Mama Monarch keeps returning every day, laying more and more eggs! what to do cuz I know I probably don't have enuff milkweed to feed all of them, even if only half of them hatch. I've called around to all the nurseries to see if they have any locally....not.

Anyone out there in OKC that might want some eggs/cats? I have even resorted to trying to scare her off (can you imagine?). The nusery that carried the milkweed I purchased about 3 years ago when I had a similar situation has gone out of business.

I have tons of Cynanchum laeve, and will have to rely on that to feed them if necessary. They will usually eat it if they don't have any other choice. I guess Mama is just not very good at gauging how many eggs she should lay in proportion to the amount of available food. Geez...
