I will be offering diapaused eggs for sale soon. This way, you wouldn't have to worry about them being warmed up when shipped to you. Shipping is free also. They are laid in natural pattern on paper. Put them in the fridge for 2 months is all you need.

they come in a cup and the cup is only good to last 10 days with that many silks and food in it..

Hi Ozzie, glad he loved them :) Gues i packed a little too much :) If you must keep them cool, they can go into a fridge, but not too long, and not over a day at a time..... it makes them weak and they may not waken..if kept too long.. try a beer cooler. Maybe better. the best way, is as...

It's so complicated that it is hard to explain given many unknowns of the treatment you gave them, or non treatment at all. It's yes you can put them in cold, no you can't, all depending! Anyway... Basically, to sum it up, and as suggested by Sue Kayton... LEAVE THE EGGS FOR AT LEAST 2...

maybe it is the food??? One is a different formula or has something already rotten ?? :confused:

that's odd.. did you get them from the same place?? there are in general 2 kinds of food for them.. I heard one is better than the other. Not sure. I've had both. They both did ok. they just produce diff colors due to the presence of lack of chlorophyll in their food. It's better that they...

if a tree is dormant, no one would spray them, and even if sprayed, it will be fine with the new leaflets. I have an aunt who lives in Monroe.

unfortunately we have passed the windows to ship live trees... you will have to wait till it goes dormant in oct. but if you are in LA, that means they will flourish right away. I heard trees there don't lose leaves. Heck, I used to visit New Orleans several times a year including mardi gras...

what do you mean by selections? as in different feeders?? i am trying to build that up :) no, silkworms don't need nothing but silkworm chow! or leaves. I've just updated more stuff.

yes my website is www.ladysilkworm.com it's interesting you should ask if i sell supers, i was just reading about breeding them!! Can you tell me what sizes and count you would like??? I need to diversify and get into more stuff. I use chicken mash and baby food as substrate coz I...

they just hatch on their own in room temp. even at 65 degrees! but of course you can incubate them at 80 and they will hatch out faster. Nothing special. You do just like the hornworms. But you need to be extra sanitary with them.. and they can't live in a cup forever. You either grate...

I agree, I think it is the best way to go. With my website, I like to be as descriptive as I can so that you know what you are getting. Pretty soon I will be offering diapaused eggs and FREE shipping. That means you can put them away and take them out after two months and hatch as many as you...

Thanks Bruno! I am shipping yours tomorrow. Doubled the order! :) oh I met up with joeG today already. He isn't very far from me... I am glad he can finally use the silkworms at the sizes that he can use!

you can put horns in the fridge for a day at at time, that would slow them down. people doing reptile shows do this all the time to get their horns ready.

Hey, I've been thinking about getting a cham.. going to the LIHS auction and see if I can get some housing and equipment cheaply.. I like to keep a cham since I have endless supply of silks!! :D I am getting excited. I wanna take down my fishtank. there is only one cichlid in it!

yes, the horns are prettier. But they get aggressive. They whip and bite! you should check out some of my colorful silkworms. hhehe http://www.ladysilkworm.com/exotic-silkworm-color-chow.html
