The life cycle of a Monarch butterfly
How does a caterpillar turn into a butterfly?
The mother lifecycle butterfly lays lots of eggs under a leaf.Then in a couple of days the baby caterpillar chews the egg and slowly comes out and slowly finds lots of leaves and then the caterpillar eats lots and lots until it get bigger and bigger after when it gets bigger it will move and move until it finds a stick it will move a lot and then it will turn it a chrysalis.In a couple of days it will slowly turn in to a butterfly.
How long does it take for a Monarch butterfly to leave the caterpillar?
The egg takes 5 to 10 days, the larva/caterpillar and pupa/chrysalis each take about 10 to 14 days.
Then the butterfly comes out of the chrysalis and flies away and it makes more babies and it does it over and over again
