House flies start out as eggs from which maggots hatch after one day. The maggot stage lasts three to five days; during this stage the maggots spend a lot of time molting. The pupae stage is next and lasts three to six days. The flies are encased in a hard shell somewhat like a butterfly cocoon during the pupae stage. Finally, full grown house flies emerge at the end of the pupae stage.

How do you make a bot fly?

You don't. They grow from eggs laid by female bot flies under the skin of an animal. When the eggs hatch maggots grow under the skin and then metamorphose into adult bot flies, which then cut their way out to emerge through the skin.
