The Latin name for the Painted Lady butterfly is Vanessa cardui. This is the name that scientists use.
Gatorade tastes like sweet water with a grape flavour in it. We think the butterflies like it because it is sweet like nectar.

Gatorade tastes sour and like grape. I think the grape gatorade tastes like grape juice. We think the butterflies like this because it tastes good and they can drink it because it is a liquid.

It tastes like sugar and salt to me. It tastes really, really sour and it makes your tongue feel dry. We think that the butterflies like it because probably they like sour a lot.

The Gatorade tastes sour and I think that butterflies like it because to me it almost tasted like nectar would taste like. The man that we got the caterpillars from said that grape Gatorade is the most like nectar. I think it tastes sort of like watery honey and like cherry.

Hello Butterfly Researchers, I'm waiting very anxiously for the butterflies to come out of their chrysalids! Is there any way to tell when they are close to hatching? Do you think the chrysalids will start swinging back and forth as the butteflies try to get out?
From Luke's Mom
P.S. I sure have learned a lot about butterflies from your blog. My favorite is that the plural of the word "chrysalis" is "chrysalids".
Our theory is that when the chrysalis turns a dark black colour it is going to come out soon.
Two of the butterflies have come out this morning.
Please read the blog updates for more information.
