I just wanted to post this up. A few weeks ago my milkweed got monarch babies! No, not the kind where its a human with a crown (now that would be weird). In my area we rarely ever see any monarchs (probably because of the dry air). They were orphans as I found the mother torn to pieces . Anyway, I took six of them and raised all of them into adulthood. Sadly, three of them came out of the chrysalis with OC, a deadly disease that spreads quickly and leaves the victim's wings crumpled forever. I had to youthenize them as I had no choice . The other three made it out healthily and stayed in the section of the living room devoted to orchids. Here is one on my Psychopsis. (form all of this talk the admins may want to move this thread).
