I harvest the eggs and "farm" my own silkworms , I have to buy in fresh mulberry leaves (usually from GumTree sellers) in season and out of season when I run out of blanched&frozen leaves I make up worm food from commercial silkworm chow to keep my worms fed. Each female moth can lay 400 eggs. ( I mostly refrigerate my surplus eggs til I need to hatch them).
Snails :

I buy my snails from a snail farmer who breeds and cultivates them for human consumption (based in Hunter Valley) and buy the punnet .... these are larger and I give them to my two BTS as treats.
