Remember that coccoon I opened up? Welp, the caterpillar successfully pupated, and I managed to get a timelapse that (sort of) captured the processpic.twitter.com/rYJ4JXkgG7

I'm not sure if it took her so long (5-6 days) because that's how long the process usually takes, or because I interrupted her early on by opening the coccoon. Here she is before she started pupating, making a brief attempt to thwart me by tossing up a little more silkpic.twitter.com/ur10PgEXu4

I saw some pretty noticeable changes inside the cocoon one day in the time-lapse, were you able to see if it "gooey-fied" during that time, or what exactly was happening?
