There are many species of ladybugs and their eggs look different depending on the species. They vary from very pale yellow (almost white) to very bright orange (almost red). The kind I see commonly are dandelion-yellow. They are always oblong (taller than they are wide) but some are nearly round. Some are so small that you can barely see them, most are about 1 mm tall. They are laid in clusters stuck down to some surface. I have found them on the bottoms of leaves and on a flower pot. The clusters I have found have about 10 eggs but I have read that clusters of 50 are common. Eggs that have hatched already will be white, as only the shells are left.
