Butterfly Scavenger Hunt-Answer Key Stage 1: The Egg 1. Butterflies lay their eggs on leaves because the soon-to-be caterpillar will have a food source available. 2. Butterfly eggs come in many shapes and colors. The shapes include spherical, oval, and pod-shaped; the colors include white, green, and yellow. Stage 2: Larva (Caterpillar) 1. Not very long. About two weeks to a month. 2. The larva constantly eats and grows very quickly. Stage 3: Pupa (Chrysalis) 1. During this stage, the caterpillar tissues are broken down and the adult insect's structures are formed. 2. Metamorphosis. Stage 4: Adult Butterfly 1. When the butterfly first comes out from the chrysalis, both of the wings are going to be soft and folded against its body. 2. Adults can only eat liquid food through their straw-like proboscis. Most butterflies only sip flower nectar, liquids from rotting fruit, mushy bird dung, and mineral-rich water from puddles.
