This is a blog that has been assigned to my Ap English class. This blog will include details and research materials on a insect that looks like a leaf. This insect is a Katydid. I caught and sealed it in a container inside my home. Also, this blog will include what a Katydid eats, the way its reproductive system works, and its daily life in a clear rectangle with a green roof.

The Hatching Process
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Aowx2hXVNeM I wanted to show you guys what a Katydid looks like as it is being hatched. With this link you should be able to watch the way the Katydid comes out, squeezing it's soft delicate body through the hard shell. As it wiggles and squirms out. Once the body is fully out it is able to open and extend it's legs out of the cramped space, making it look bigger than it does without it's legs.
