Monarch caterpillar
(lemmy.nz)
It's that time of year again, when the kids (and myself) get overly invested in the lifecycle of these grubs. Last year we managed maybe a 10% success rate (from egg to butterfly) hopefully we'll do better this time round.
Hmm, maybe, but the sizes don't seem right. I'd guess maybe the painted lady, but it was very small, not near 5cm. I'd guess 1cm high and 2cm wide as a maximum. These state maximum sizes, maybe I just saw a smaller one?
