Hi, we had 10 cabbage white caterpillars and only 4 have turned to green chrysalis'. The other 6 had yellow wasp larvae sprout from them and then they eventually died. So, the pale yellow eggs are actually wasp larvae and they hatch out and look like flying ants.
The cabbage white butterfly prefers to lay eggs on cabbage or nasturtium leaves because their caterpillars feed on these plants. Cabbage white butterfly caterpillars are specialized to digest compounds found in cabbage and nasturtium, allowing them to grow and develop successfully. This plant preference ensures the survival and growth of the next generation of butterflies.
because they contain mustard oil, necessary nutrition for the caterpillars

no........... :)
Cabbage white eggs typically take about 5 to 10 days to hatch, depending on environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. Warmer temperatures can accelerate the hatching process, while cooler conditions may prolong it. Once hatched, the larvae, commonly known as caterpillars, begin to feed on host plants like cabbage and other crucifers.
To get their children to eat cabbage.
Butterfly. The caterpillars then eat the cabbages.
Cabbage white butterflies have various predators, including birds such as sparrows, finches, and robins. Insects like dragonflies, spiders, and wasps also feed on cabbage white butterfly eggs and caterpillars. Additionally, small mammals like shrews and mice may prey on these butterflies.

yes they emit little clicking sounds to each other to warn fellow cabbages if there are white cabbage moths or caterpillars trying to find shelter or to lay eggs.
