How long does it take for a scorpions egg to hatch?
Scorpion young are born live. Once they emerge from the mother they travel to her back where she will carry them for the first couple of instar stages. As for how long it takes from conception to birth, it varies from what kind of scorpion are impregnated, humidity, temperature, and other variables. It can range from about 3-9 months. I once had a couple of Emperor Scorpions and one got pregnant. Took about 7 months or so, and she gave birth to around 28-32 young. (A large amount for Emperor Scorpions.) She died about a week later. 15 young survived.

What is the name of the stage when the moths egg hatch?
Caterpillars go through stages called "instars". Every time they shed their exoskeleton, they go into a new instar. When a moth egg first hatches, the caterpillar is technically called a "first instar larva". Once they shed their exoskeleton for the first time, they are second instar larvae. Often, different instars of a single caterpillar species look completely different, and caterpillar experts can often tell you which instar a caterpillar is in when they identify it, in addition to what species it is.
