What's happening to my Monarch Caterpillars?

last modified: 2 years ago

Located in Mexico, I've been raising monarch caterpillars for two years now. I find them on tropical milkweed plants on the street or other people front yards. This year I've had 15 successfully become butterflies, but today I noticed several of the caterpillars stopped moving and they have green stains. Does anyone have any idea of what could be causing this?
