Hey, I have managed to find silkworms in stock for the first time in the uk and am looking to raising them to a bigger size and hopefully breeding them.
I have got tuppleware boxes and mesh. I was thinking of turning the boxes upside down, and cutting the bottom of the boxes for easy mess removal. I was also thinking of sticking a few supports in for the mesh rather then sticking the mesh in for easy cleaning. Would aquarium sealent be safe for this?
Ive read they like temps between 75/85. The top of my viv gets to almost 100 on the hotside. Thinking of putting them on the viv wheres its about 90 to allow for heat loss? I also have one of the thermo bags for night?
For disenfectant I have rubbing alcohol (70% iso). Is this ok?
Anything I am missing?
Thanks guys! Xx
