Monarch baby boom in OK
Q

Hi, Betty, and welcome to the forum. Everyone here is super nice and helpful so I encourage you to post photos and above all, feel free to ask questions. I live in OKC and have been on the forum for about 5 years now, and have been gardening for butterflies and raising butterflies for about 8 years now. Your caterpillars you found were probably going "walk about", which they do when they are getting ready to form a chrysalis, or pupate. They will ultimately find a spot to hang from and after some time (about 24 hours) their skin will molt to reveal that beautiful chrysalis. You surely do have some milkweed in the vicinity. Look for plants that have been chewed on, bare stems, frass (tiny, black pea-like balls) on foliage and stems. When you break off a leaf or stem there will be a milky substance. Milkweed is toxic so be sure to wear gloves, or wash your hands after handling. It is this toxic substance, however, that offers the Monarch caterpillar and butterfly protection from some (not all) predators. The Monarchs are migrating right now down to the Mexican fir forests where they spend the winter. In spring, in April and May, they will begin the migration back into the U.S. You may also find eggs and caterpillars around that time of year as well. There are a few of us here from Oklahoma, so if you want to plant more things for butterflies in the way of their host plants and nectar plants, we can make suggestions on that, too. I have raised Monarchs, Black Swallowtails, Giant Swallowtails, Pipevine Swallowtails, Cloudless Sulphurs, Sleepy Oranges, Red Admirals, Buckeyes, Question Marks, Hackberry and Tawny Emperors, and Gulf Fritillaries. Welcome and hope you continue to post! Susan

OK---it's baby-naming time!

I don't think someone has metioned this, but sound out the first name with your last name. If you have a tongue twisting last name (like mine with two "Z"s) you want to go with simple classic names or the whole name will be too much. I always loved the name Zackary, but with a Z last name that was out. I choose Thomas for my son because of that reason and he could be either Tommy, Tom or Thomas when he grew up. I use to call him Thomas up to grade school. Then he came home one day and told me his name now was Tommy. Today at 25 he goes by Tom. So he has been all three. My preference is for classic names that have stood the test of time and are not trendy. Maybe because I have such a classic name myself. Clare

Hi KT and I am going in for surgery next wed...long

I had mine like Besty and a few others. It was done long ago in 1975 and they made me stay in the hospital for 5 days. Could not understand that, I was ready to go home the next day. I had no pain at all so never took even one pain pill. I have always said the worst part of it was staying in the hospital 5 days and standing up for the first time is kind of strange. It feels like they stretched you open enough to drive a truck through! LOL You'll do fine Stacy and will not regret for one minute you had it done.

And we were recently told that our only daughter, youngest of 4, is pregnant with her 1st! This, 80 minutes after we were told our only 4 GKs (aged 7-12) will be moving 1000 miles away in Dec. "When one door closes, another opens."

We had a great grandson born last Dec. and now this Dec. we are getting a great granddaughter from our second granddaughter. They are so much fun. We babysit for the little guy while his mommy goes to nursing school. He has just started walking. I use to babysit all four of our grandkids at once now it takes the two of us to keep up with this little one. Lol
Congratulations on all the new grandmas and grandmas to be.

I want to be a baby holder, too!

My boss had a baby boy this Spring. I snatch him up whenever I get the chance. Last time, I had to explain to him that if he was hungry, he would have to go back to Mommy- I may have the "parts" but they don't work THAT way! LOL

re: my previous post. Yeah, it's bittersweet. We took a major financial hit almost 5 yrs. ago to relocate 900 miles to be near the 4 GKs who are now moving 1000 miles away. And it was worth all the sacrifice. They are terrific, fun kids. So, our knee-jerk reaction, for those 80 minutes, to them moving was for us to move back "home" (don't like this city.) And then DD told us they were pregnant and we're staying put (an hr.+ away.) I bought the future GK a present today!

It's a KT baby boom!
