I went outside and checked the milkweed. I got an egg that I assumed I had missed the other day. But when I came in to add it to the container, I noticed nearly all of my eggs have hatched! One egg looked like it was about to hatch and the other was gray. The one I picked on the leaf was still white so it must have been laid later. I better go check the plant again. I'm waiting a few hours until I go water the new plants. No sense letting the sun absorb all my water. Also, that weird caterpillar I found yesterday is eating a LOT of leaf. I think he grew half an inch last night!
