No. They lay eggs which turn into a caterpillar. The caterpillar turns into a cocoon then into a butterfly.
We call it a cocoon.
a cocoon cant turn into a caterpiller because a caterpiller turns into a cocoon then turns into a butterfly
caterpillars turn into butterflies by shedding their last skin and turning into a cocoon or crsyls. (*
Butterflies are the animals that live in a cocoon for part of their life cycle. They undergo metamorphosis inside the cocoon, transforming from a caterpillar into a butterfly.
The time it takes for a caterpillar to hatch from its cocoon varies depending on the species. Some can emerge within a few weeks, while others may take several months. It is essential to know the specific species of caterpillar to determine the approximate hatching time.
If your caterpillar turned brown it might either have died or, most likely, it pupated and started to turn into a butterfly or a moth. Usually if it is a dark brown and still caterpillar-shaped, it has probably died, but if it is a lighter brown or reddish colour and has a different shape, it is most likely starting a cocoon.
Caterpillars usually go into a cocoon during late-winter or late spring(March-may)
As long as it takes my gran to get out of the bath
Caterpillars turn into either a butterfly or a moth.
If you leave it there, and nothing else comes along and eats it, then eventually the bottom of the cocoon opens up and a moth or a butterfly struggles out. It sits in the air for a while drying out, then it flys away. If it's a moth, it lays eggs, never eats, and dies.
