Congratulations!!! You must be thrilled. I think I'm done with butterflies for the year. Just enjoying watching and waiting for all my plants to give up seeds so I can continue to expand what I have to offer for next year. My DH found a toad hanging out in a damp corner. That's encouraging, since it means the bug population is adequate to support toads, and there aren't a any chemicals around to harm them.

Enjoy your Painted Lady babies. Hope to see more pictures as they grow.

Did you catch them or raise them from different parents?

Congrats to you Sam! I would be very excited too. I have ever seen Painted Lady eggs and did not realize how much they resemble Monarch eggs except for the coloring. Post more pics and keep us posted on the progress.
