Balrog had her first silkworms!

[isabelleandpaul]

Yay!
She ate 6 silkworms this morning! I got them yesterday. I don't really understand myself, I have a strong repulsion for caterpillars and I ordered silkworms and butterworms! I guess I'm really a slave! But I have yet to touch a silkworm, I used a spoon to put the worms in Balrog's salad bowl...
What's wrong with me? I don't have any problems with roaches (I am proud of my successful dubia colony) but caterpillars give me the creeps!
Hopefully Balrog will eat all of them soon enough (I ordered 100)!

I just got my first order too. And boy does Libby love them. I don't touch them too much either. I use feeder tongs to get them out. I figure that why I also don't touch the others and kill them off. I have touched a few though and they aren't that bad. Hornworms on the other hand, I won't go near them. Squishy catepillars that bite, no thanks!
