250 Black Tiger Silkworm Eggs Hatch at Room Temp

Just about all the eggs hatched, minus maybe 50.It was very fun watching them grow. They are very delicate and require checking on at least 2 times a day. I worked out a system right away. I got amazing results. They are growing fast now. I already have 5 going through the pupate stage. About 10 more that will be starting soon. This has been a very fun project for me. Very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend!

The media could not be loaded.  Some of the worms hatched and died in transit. Seller told me that was impossible even tho I had a picture. So I waited like they said and only 50 worms actually hatched and didn’t die. The rest never hatched at all

Arrived on time. Followed the included directions and kept them at room temp only about 15% of my 250 eggs hatched. The rest dried out for some reason. When I contacted seller he said it was my fault the eggs dried out even though I did nothing different from the 1000 eggs I bought a couple months before that hatched just fine.

The media could not be loaded.  I ordered 250 eggs. 8 days after delivery, they started hatching. 26 days after first hatching, I had 650+ worms, very healthy. I fed them with mulberry leaves from day one. It is lots of work to feed and clean them.My kids and my cat are fascinated by these beautiful creatures. But I don’t allow my cat to eat them.Next year, I would allow only 50 worms to hatch, since we just want to enjoying watching them eat, and make cocoon soon.

Was surprised when the caterpillars hatched out within a few days of their arrival. There were a whole lot of them.Unfortunately turned into nearly a complete disaster because of a defective batch of Silkworm Food!Fortunately I have Mulberry leaves to feed them. Had to throw out the expensive prepared food.Only about half dozen have survived!!!
