Until the wings have straightened out and the butterflies can fly. They can fend for themselves then. ^^
No, a painted lady butterfly does not have teeth. Instead, they have a proboscis - a long, tube-like structure that they use to suck up nectar and other liquids for feeding. They do not chew their food.
No, painted lady butterflies are not the fastest butterflies in the world. While they are known for their long migrations and can fly at speeds of up to 12 miles per hour, other species, such as the monarch butterfly, can reach similar or slightly higher speeds. The title of the fastest butterfly is often attributed to the swift butterfly, which can fly at speeds of around 30 miles per hour.
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.
Painted butterfly's live for approximetly 54 days, (thats their whole lifespan, egg - butterfly) but when there a butterfly only 14 days, (2 weeks)
It takes 7 - 11 days for the chrysalis to turn into a butterfly.
When there at least 2 or 3 inches wide and 1 and a half long.
butterflies dont have touge's its true
No. Butterflies have tiny scales on their wings, and long fur on their bodies.
How far do butterflies fly each winter
One scientific question about butterflies could be: How do butterflies navigate during migration over long distances?
This is a empire china plate with marking #950 with a painted proclain lady trim in dark blue. with long brown hair.
The significance is the long hair symbolizes the boys being on the island for a long time and the painted faces symbolizes that the can hunt when their faces are painted.
