- Cecropia giant silk moth ecloses and dries its wings at The Caterpillar Lab.
When conditions are suitable, a pupa will begin to undergo a rapid and dramatic series of changes. As old structures break down, new adult structures grow and the body of the adult moth or butterfly is formed. Once the adult has fully developed and separated from its pupa skin, it is ready to emerge and take flight. The term for the shedding off of the old pupa skin is eclosion.

it's such a fuzzy boy and I love it
wow cool butterfly
Poof it’s a female and a moth
I feel like John Hammond from the first Jurassic Park when he's watching the egg in the lab hatch. "C'mon, push. Push!"
Even their little cocoons are cute! Honestly I have to wonder what that feels like....
Cramped?!
It feels being in a sauna for months, all cramped and over-snug, and finally as soon as we get to breathe after breaking open the cocoon we are so sweaty but relaxed and then after 2 weeks we faint and die the end beautiful story
Imagine being wrapped up in a paper bag which is inside of *another* paper bag, and having to crawl or scratch your way out.
They don’t feel cramped because they digest themselves and rebuild themself so by the time it’s rebuilt it’s usually already breaking out and when they are digested guts they don’t feel anything
prolly like being in a wet plastic bag barely big enough for you to move in that you have to crawl/scratch your way out of
And no one talks about how incredibly beautiful his eyes are.
Her* it's female
@@wolfbanesons you are taking about the moth right?
@@adamkhattou8694 yea
So cool! I'm raising cecropia moths myself and I can't wait for mine to hatch!
So.... how did it go?
Unfortunatelly a fever took him..
I remember the cecropias wings bears the image of a snake to scare off predators(birds)
Many saturnidae species have this trait...
Well, your talking about Attacus Atlas, the atlas moth. That one's called the snake's head moth in Cantonese. And yes, almost all Saturniidae moths are like this.
looks like a fish lol
They say the flame that burns twice as bright, burns for half as long. Well this species, Hyalophora Cecropia, the largest in north america, lives for just 2 short weeks.
The wings are absolutely beautiful!!!!
Beautiful video! The complexity of these creatures is so incredible, it speaks to me of our amazing Creator!
That music came from Mixels
Beautiful specimen and footage...
I like the part when the moth stared flying
for some reason the cheerful music just felt so ironic--
like- imagine someone giving birth and you hear this music
thats honestly how it feels to me
U r so beautifull with that blue eyes 😁
Now all we need are two little fairies
Beautiful
What a beautiful moth
Thank you so much I find the work of god is very amazing by transfering this giant silk moth thank you and god blesses you!
I love them
In indonesia it called kupu kupu gajah or attacus atlas sp.
Accordion music would have been more appropriate
LMAO
What do u guys so with the cocoons? Also love the video !
And he can’t even bite!
I found three cocoons of them this year
I like moths
Nice animal crossing pfp
i really like that music
do you have a monarch video?
Finding one of these in the forest is the closest to a real life pokemon go lol
Schöne blaue Augen
EEEEE A MOTH IS MY SPIRIT ANIMAL
sweet
💛😁💛
SICKKK!!!
That man has beautiful eyes
Misleading. The Cecropia moth builds a horizontal and durable Cacoon which is pretty unique looking for a giant silk moth. It would have been nice to show it so your viewers can spot it in nature.
Here is a good video of the cocoon & cutting it! ruclips.net/video/q7cLVjdW2-c/видео.html

Do luna moth
Does anyone know how long does it take for them to fully spread their wings? Mine was hatched yesterday morning, and now its been around 30 hours + and her wings are not fully opened. I am worried at this point. Please, help...
I am curious about your cecropia. I am having similar issues with mine that just enclosed a few hours ago. I fear it might be deformed :*(
@@christipuffinburger4086 I signed up for a "Bug Forum" that same day. From what I found out she was deformed. My poor girl stayed the same. When the sun was almost down, that same day, I climbed a tree in my yard, and put her as high as I could. It was so sad. She was trying to flop her wings constantly...She knew she must fly but could not. Luckily, it is the tree that she would cocoon naturally, so she would emerge on this tree ( if not in my jar :)) . I originally found her as caterpillar on one of my apple tree, right next to this one. So, I just let her go. Hopefully she was able to attract a male, they live so little.
@@yulkabubble1954 aw I am so sorry to hear that! was she still able to mate? I made a cage last night from a cardboard box and this morning at 5 am two males were flying at her. She's been mating with the one since then. I am hopeful she lays eggs so I can try again and next time. Hopefully the wings won't be deformed. :(
@@christipuffinburger4086 I have no way of knowing how she did, unfortunately. After I put her on the tree she crawled up really high and at some point I lost a track of her. I would like to think that she met her man that night :)))
@@yulkabubble1954 I'm sure she did :)
Where is the silk?
the Chrysalis was removed from the Cocoon
???
What
I did the worst thing today. I was fixing my garage door and saw what I thought was wet cardboard stuck to inside of door. I scraped it off and was wondering what it was. Well upon scraping it off I tore it open and saw yellowish fluid gush out! I googled it and yes it was one of these beautiful moths which probably had another month or so of coming out. Please people don't make me feel any worse 😰😰😰😭😭
Nah its good, we kill things every day. We step on tiny bugs and dont notice it
oh well...... I've made mistakes like that too. like one day, there was a fly in our house and while I was trying to kill the fly, I felt something wet under my foot. I looked down and I had stepped on a caterpillar, it was still slightly moving but liquid was gushing out, and it was not going to survive. I thought to myself, if just I was paying more attention, I would have a caterpillar and be able to raise it into beautiful moth. it was all my fault.... but everybody makes mistakes.
I could swear I've heard the music used here before on a lot of other youtube "channels"
lp2317 it's popular.
It's stock music.
Its why i gave it 2 seconds of view and paused it and stopped
I think thats a female
