How do caterpillars mate?

Answer 1

Caterpillars are born......

First, they make a concoon and it takes about 2 weeks for some, others take months.

Then, it goes through a cycle.....

Finally, it comes out of its concoon and turned into a butterfly.

Answer 2

Caterpillars do not reproduce. They are the larval feeding stage of moths and butterflies. Caterpillars hatch from eggs, grow by eating mostly leaves, then cocoon themselves in a chrysalis and undergo metamorphosis to become a moth or butterfly. The moths or butterflies feed on nectar, eventually mate and the females lay eggs that hatch into caterpillars.

Answer 3

They don't. Caterpillars are the larval stage of moths and butterflies. When moth eggs hatch into caterpillars, they grow and eat until they can pupate (cocoon themselves). While in the pupa stage, the caterpillar metamorphoses into the adult moth, which can then mate and lay eggs, and begin the cycle again.

Answer 4

Caterpillars do not give birth. After the caterpillar undergoes metamorphosis, it might lay eggs, but that's pretty much it. A caterpillar doesn't lay eggs at after the caterpillar grows up into a butterfly, then it lays the eggs which turn into baby caterpillars.

Answer 5

Generally they become Butterflies or Moths then these Adult Insects mate and the females lay eggs which in turn become larvae that is Caterpillars. The Caterpillars do not themselves breed.

Answer 6

Caterpillars do not mate. They are immature butterflies or moths. They change into a butterfly and then they mate.

Answer 7
