All 14 eggs have hatched, but I've only found 7 caterpillars. There was a heavy rain storm and when I got home this evening the milkweed stalk was bent to the ground. I don't know if the other 7 caterpillars got washed away or I just haven't found them yet. If only 7 out of 14 caterpillars survived what is the percent?
Also--Milky left to find a quiet stable place to make a chrysalis. I looked all around but can't find him. I hope he is near so I can see him fly away.
