First it is a egg then it is a larva then it is a cocoon then it is a adult moth
They mostly are found in a cocoon where they live. Lunar Moth Caterpillars usually live in Mexico, South America, and all over the USA. Lunar Moth Caterpillars are not poisonous and do not bite though they do look a little worrisome. They eat any leaves that are around or close to them, they also like brightly colored flowers. In case you were wondering they do not glow in the dark. I hope this was hopeful! I recently found one on my porch my self and am waiting for for it to come out of a cocoon. Oh! I almost forgot they only life for four days once they become a moth, and if the are lucky a week to ten days. So please let them go (Only if you have a moth or caterpillar) so they can lay eggs.Thanks for reading!
Case Moth/Bag Worm/Bag Moth (Psychidae). The cocoon or case is mobile. The caterpillars are leaf miners when they are very small and may take several years before they come to the pupate stage. If it is a female, it will not develop wings and will never come out of the bag. It waits for a winged male in her bag.
The Atlas moth has the shortest life span. They spend about a month in their cocoons. After coming out of the cocoon, they live about one to two weeks as an adult then usually die.
its wings will not flatten out because when it was in its cocoon something went wrong/ like the cocoon might have been disturbed. so by 3 days its wings wont flatten out

The Cinnabar Moth will stay in their cocoon for a period of nine months. They cocoon themselves in the early summer and do not emerge from the cocoon until the next spring.
If the moth hatches, it chews its way out of the cocoon, cutting all the silk fibers. for silk production, the caterpillar is killed before it hatches, so the silk strands can be unwound and remain whole.
