How long does it take for a monarch butterfly to come out of its cocoon after you can see the butterfly inside?
A Monarch chrysalis/pupa (cocoon is actually an improper term) will begin to turn color the day before the butterfly emerges. It will emerge in less than 24 hours once the chrysalis is totally clear and you can see the wings and body inside. If you notice the color change in the evening, it will emerge the next morning. If you see the color change in the morning, it should emerge before noon. If it looks like it's covered in plastic wrap, it won't be immediate. Once it begins to have a wax paper look, it will emerge soon.
How long do painted lady butterflies take to turn from caterpillars to butterflies?
I've been told that caterpillars feed for a week to ten days before going into a chrysalis. Then the chrysalis stage last about a week to ten days before emerging as a butterfly (which takes less than a minute!).EDIT:Just found it for Monarch butterflies!http://monarchwatch.org/rear/kit.htmThe pupae usually form in morning hours (9-11 am) or later in the day (5-7 pm). So my guess is it only takes a few minutes.

How can I start my own butterfly garden?
Butterfly gardens require flowers which produce good nectar. Having a variety of Hibiscus, Daylilies, Aster, and other high nectar flowers will attract more butterflies. Butterflies also prefer to lay their eggs in certain food plants. Ensuring some Monarch or Morning cloak, can entice females to lay their eggs, bringing more butterflies.
What is the difference between the queen becoming a monarch and the coronation?
When the previous reigning monarch dies, at that instant, the next in line becomes the new monarch - this is the accession. At some point in the future (after the old monarch has been ceremonially buried and after a period of morning), the new monarch, at a ceremony, makes promises to their subjects to rule justly and is crowned. At the the point of coronation the monarch becomes the new reigning monarch.

How long does it take for a caterpillar to be a butterfly?
Actually the butterfly egg comes before the caterpillar. The adult butterfly lays eggs which hatch out in about 3-7 days. The young caterpillars start off eating and basically don't stop for 2-3 weeks. They grow tremendously during this time and will increase their body mass by a few thousand times. Caterpillars grow so much that they will shed their exoskeleton several times. Some caterpillars actually change their appearance considerably from one molting to the next. Once the caterpillars have grown big enough (usually about 2-3 weeks) they will be ready for their final molt that will reveal the chrysalis. Some of the butterfly features will actually be starting to form in their bodies as they prepare to pupate (become a chrysalis or pupa).When the caterpillar is ready to shed its exoskeleton for the last time it will find a place on a stem or branch and attach itself by spinning its own silk. Most caterpillars will hang upside down but a few (Swallowtails) will attach along side of a stem and use a silk sling to hold themselves in place. After the caterpillar is firmly attached, about 24 hours later it will wiggle like crazy and shed its exoskeleton revealing the chrysalis beneath. Although the chrysalis appears to be motionless, inside tremendous activity is taking place. The caterpillar anatomy is being chemically disassembled and reconstructed into the adult butterfly. Amazing! In about 1-2 weeks the adult butterfly will be ready to emerge.

How many hours does it take for a monarch caterpillar to turn itself into a chrysalis?
Last year I decided to "raise" a few Monarchs. I was determined to watch them morph into their shiny green chrysalis. I had them in my daughters bug barn and went so far as to take them to work with me so I wouldn't miss the event. One morning I noticed one of the caterpillars doing this odd kind of shaking "dance". I had to go to lunch and left them on my desk until I returned. I returned 45 minutes later to see that it had completely morphed into its beautiful green shiny home. Since I had 2 more that hadn't changed yet, I didn't take my eyes off of them when I saw them do their "dance". I was fortunate enough to take in a beautiful transformation. It's something I think everyone should see, really! Watching it happen before your eyes and seeing how it loosens itself from its outer skin (that's what the dancing turned out to be) and transforms into the chrysalis is mind boggling. I hope you have the chance to catch it for yourself!
