Stick insects (Phasmatodea) undergo what is called incomplete metamorphosis. This means that their life cycle actually includes three major stages: egg, nymph, and adult. The life cycle begins when the female deposits eggs through oviposition. The eggs hatch after 13-70 days. The young stick insect nymphsresemble adults but must go through several "instars," as they shed old exoskeletons and grow new ones. Once this process of shedding is finished, the nymphs have reached the adult stage, usually after several months and multiple molts.
