I heard back from the Colorado state hemp pest picture blog. They confirmed it’s an Asian lady beetle.
They said it’s probably eating mites or aphids if it’s all over your plant. But the rub with Asian lady beetles is if they get hungry, they have no problem eating plants too. So they are bug eaters, but omnivorous if they end up with slim pickings. They also like to bite people if handled roughly.
There are definitely worse bugs to have. Be glad the murder hornets have not made a nest of your garden ha.
Anyone can send a pest picture there to be identified and confirmed:
@noddykitty1 Thanks for the info!! I have some pics of my Caterpillars which may not be Caters but more of a cutworm thing? I dunno? Ill have to research at this site…
Thanks. I just looked and there does seem to be a few leaves that have been eaten/picked at. Not the poultry because theyre too high.
Should I just leave them to do their thing?
