Butterfly in need!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

I have raied this Painted Lady Butterfly since it was a Catterpillar. It hatched yesterday and i made a great house for it until it can go into the wild on its own and i offer it fresh flowers that it likes(I did research on the internet) but it's not eating. I've also put cottonballs with sugar water in the house but still will not eat it hasnt been eating since it hatched out of the Crysalis.

Does any body know what i can do??

If you don't know dont bother answering

Thanks

Reply:If you go to this website you can ask an expert that has been raising butterflies in a butterfly house. He would probably be very helpful and knowledgeable.

Reply:I'm only guessing here... but what tree/plant are they usually a crysalis on?? I imagine that would be a food source for it, as a first meal when hatched.
