700 eggs
A giant swallowtail butterfly typically lays between 20 to 100 eggs at a time. The eggs are usually deposited on the leaves of host plants, such as citrus trees. The exact number can vary depending on environmental conditions and the availability of suitable host plants. After a few days, the eggs hatch into caterpillars, which then begin to feed on the leaves.
How many eggs a female butterfly lays can vary slightly by species. On average a female butterfly lays 100 eggs at one time.
In North Carolina, many butterfly species lay their eggs on specific host plants. For example, the Eastern Black Swallowtail lays its eggs on plants in the carrot family, such as parsley, dill, and queen anne's lace. Monarch butterflies typically lay their eggs on milkweed plants, which are essential for the survival of their caterpillars. These host plants provide the necessary nutrients for the developing larvae.
