Mostly parasitized, then
Most of them are bluish gray. Do these eggs need moisture from the leaf? It's part of a bin of prunings that sat around and partly dried out for days before I got to sorting them. I put the shoot in water, but it may be too late to rehydrate.

they emerge and fall to the ground with threads. i wouldnt blanket say they have parasites, may be about to hatch..just think..you could be mama to all those caterpillers.( they feed thru winter on weeds and grass and pupate in springtime.
