I believe this was my 3rd or 4th attempt at starting a silkworm colony, and i purchased large silkies where about 1/3 of them coccooned. The first moth hatched i guessed this morning or last night but it seems kinda small, its slightly bigger than a waxmoth and no larger than a medium sized cricket. I thought they get bigger? Also i thought they didnt eat or go to the bathroom, but when i had the moth on my hand it shout out this disgusting brown looking liquid which i have to assume is piss lol. Anyone know of a good way to sex them as well? No clue if it's a boy or a girl.
