Two more eggs hatched today, giving me a total of 5 larvae. They have been eating non-stop. You can see the difference just one day makes. The larva just above the penny hatched today. The others are the ones that hatched yesterday. It appears they have almost doubled in size! The black dots on the paper towel at the bottom of the picture is their frass (poop).
I have not had any other adult Monarch sightings since Sunday. I have gone on a few fruitless searches for eggs. I guess the Monarchs are not here in big numbers yet.
