Wow that's really cool! Where do you get the eggs? And can you breed them? I have always heard they are picky insects that you pretty much have to spoil.

I'm going to start breeding silkworms as well, I actually bought a mulberry tree that should start growing when the weather gets warmer. Any tips on breeding?

Honestly, it's really time consuming if you hatch a large quantity. I haven't mastered the clean up yet to speed things up a bit. Currently I'm on my 2nd set of 25K eggs. My first set the hatch rate was very poor so I did things a little different ok these. As far as tips, the guys at Mulberry Farms know what's going on. Their care sheet is spot on so I'd read that as much as possible.
