Butterflies do not spin or make cocoons! A cocoon is a silk 'sleeping bag' inside which a caterpillar changes into a pupa. Some moth caterpillars make cocoons with silk from spinnerets from underneath their heads. Butterflies become a pupa or chrysalis by shedding it's 'skin'. This process takes about three minutes.
