The fairy could lay up to fifty eggs at one time on the underside of a leaf, which hatched into brightly-coloured larvae. At the age of of six to ten days, these spun into themselves into a cocoon, from they emerged one month later as fully grown adult fairies.[1]
Bowtruckles were drawn to fairy eggs and ate them, along with woodlice. Hermione Granger mentioned this in response to Professor Grubbly-Plank's question in a Care of Magical Creatures lesson on Bowtruckles in 1995 at Hogwarts.[3]
