I have read some caresheets and I just have a few questions. How difficult is it to breed them? Please feel free to add any tips as well or pics of your silkworm breeding operation.

Im asking these question because im looking to save money on buying crix. I know I could breed crix but they smell terrible.

Thanks for your help. Login to remove ads. I'm about to try this myself. Still, i'll probably give the breeding a try but according to said breeder newly hatched silkworms are VERY fragile. After 10 days they seem to be a lot more forgiving.

Unfortunately I won't be much more help than that for the next few weeks till I get some eggs of my own. I'll definately let you know though.

From what I understand, you can get a mulberry tree and just make a diet out of the leaves. I'm not sure how much you would need to keep up a silkworm stock. Anyway, it's something to consider. I really can't offer much more than that Not sure if you want a mulberry tree in your backyard. Yeah I was thinking the same thing. After this winter Im going to drive around and see if there is any in the area. Can i pick leaves and freeze them?
