Silkworms are the larva of the domesticated silk moth and are extremely delicate.They are very high in calcium and protein and low in fat. They are also a soft bodied worm which makes them a delectable meal that goes down easy for your reptile!

It is not east keeping silk worms as they are extremely susceptible to their environments and eat exclusively mulberry leaves or mulberry mash. To keep silk worms, you must keep them elevated, warm, and dry and they must eat! Cardboard egg cartons will do very well to elevate them. Do not put them directly on plastic!
