Silkworm Eggs

[KarmaMoon]

After my Silkworm moth lays eggs on the paper, how do i safely remove the eggs from the paper they are laid on. they are well glued to it it seems.

You don't need to remove it. I just leave it and cut around. If you try moving it you risk damaging the eggs

I had a question regarding food.
Since they lay so many eggs; can I just feed the chow.?

Thanks.
I'm working on a tutorial.

Feed what?

Moths don't eat, they lay eggs/mate and then pass away. They last for about a week

The silkworms can eat chow but if they were raised on mulberry leaves first then it's highly likely they won't switch to chow.
