As long as it takes my gran to get out of the bath
it goes in a pupa.
It becomes a caterpillar because it eats alot of leaves and then becomes fat then soon it will turn into a pupa or another word which is chrysalis
the caterpillar will turn into a small brown pupa hidden in the leaf which will then emerge as a small brown moth.
The pupa is the stage of metamorphosis during which a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly.

The pupa is the baby caterpillar just emerged out from the larvae stage and the grown up is known as a caterpillar

It depends on the time of year. If the caterpillar turned into a pupa near the beginning of summer than it would stay in the pupa for two weeks. If the caterpillar pupated near the end of summer or fall, then it will stay in the pupa all winter and hatch next summer.
A caterpillar sheds its skin because its skin gets too tight. The caterpillar needs to grow so that is why it sheds its skin. Eventually the caterpillar will turn into a crysalis or the pupa stage.
I've heard it takes about two weeks. Hope I helped
5 days to a year dependent on the time of year, climate and environmental state.
Actually, I don't really know...
