Today we noticed that our caterpillars were behaving differently. They began the day by eating like crazy!!!
Then they stretched out into long J's, and they hung upsode down for most of the day. From time to time they would have a bit of a wriggle or a stretch.
We noticed that they had attached themselves to the underside fo the leaf by a white sticky thing.
Two of our caterpillars had already turned into chrysalis' during the weekend, so we missed out on see this part of the process.
After school, while Mrs May was waiting for class information meetings she managed to catch the action on video. Check out exactly what happens as a caterpillar turns into a chrysalis.
