Cabbage white caterpillars typically take about 5 to 10 days to pupate and form a chrysalis, rather than a cocoon, as they undergo complete metamorphosis. The exact duration can vary based on environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. Once they form the chrysalis, they will remain in this stage for about 10 to 14 days before emerging as adult butterflies.
