Silkworm chow question?

[Cainschams]

Is there anything benefitial to my chams in the chow that isnt in mulberry leaves.

No there is not. It is the same as mulberry leaves. It's just that mulberry leaves are harder to maintain as they can rot and what not.

From what i've read chow was invented as a substitute for mulberry leaves (which is the only food silkies can live on) for experiments being done on silkies.

Thanks a lot Super Rad. I have access to a few mulberry trees and am going to start buying bulk eggs so I wanted to make sure.

its funny because i just finished making some chow.
but if you have trees then use the leaves.
my sister has a bush but it is winter so there are no leaves yet.
if you buy bulk then you can sell some if you need.... to me.

Hey nightcrawler! Always going for the leaves huh? No you really need to sell them to me. lol. Boy maybe we should start a new business selling mulberry leaves.
