The caterpillars life cycle start with the egg. Then, the egg hatches and a siperise. When the egg ceract the caterpillar ceralls out. It eats and gerowes and eat and it gets biger. Then it starts to shake and chantch into a chrysalis. About six days later it is a butterfly. It has to wait a day or two to fly.

The caterpillars life cycle starts out as a egg. Then,the egg hatches. After, the caterpillar is born it eats and grows eats and grows until it is a chrysalis.Then, the caterpillar emerges from it's chrysalis and becomes a butterfly. Today the caterpillar is a butterfly. Right now it is drinking out of a sponge that Mrs.Furman put sugar and water.When, the caterpillar emerged red stuff came out of it. I'm glad that the butterfly came out.

A caterpillar can make the haed cap come off. My caterpillars has many lags he come go so fast. He can molt many times in his life. His lifecycles of a caterpillare is a egg then a baby caterpilare then he is in a chrysalis then he is in a butterfly. That is a lifecycles of a caterpill and a butterfly.
