unexpected silkworm babies

[whitespyder]

Most of my silk moths have died after mating and as I went to check if any new ones have died I noticed two batches of eggs have already hatched! Im quite surprised since these eggs are no more than a week old and haven't been through a hibernation stage at all. It has been really hot in my room for the past two days, so hot that I needed to turn my chameleons basking light off since the temp skyrocketed. But strangely, I have a bunch of egg batches in my room that are months old that were unaffected by the heat whereas only these fresh batches of eggs were. I wonder if any of the other recently laid batches will hatch like this!

Good luck with your silkworms. I am never able to keep the baby worm alive. Carefull not to over heat your chams.
