Zebra and tiger silkworm eggs available

[MissSkittles]

Just wanted to let anyone know who may be interested that Coastal Silkworms has zebra and tiger/black silkie eggs available. They aren’t always available like the normal white silkworm eggs are. So, if you want to hatch and grow some zebras or tigers, now is your chance. Smallest quantity is 250 eggs, but of course there is always a die off. You’ll still have plenty to turn into moths and provide you with more eggs to hatch until the next time zebra eggs are available. Make sure to get plenty of chow too for those cute silkie bellies. https://www.coastalsilkworms.com/silkworm-eggs.html

I see you're still at it, "cute silkie bellies". Convincing us to breed our own creepy crawlers. Do you have any suggestions for one whom might have lost and hatched a Praying Mantis oothaca, in their home. I'm absolutely sure they were afraid to sleep for fear of 50-200 baby praying mantis nymphs marching under their sheets looking for food. I'm 100% positive they kept the loss of that oothaca a secret from the other inhabitants of the home. Years later, I'm still perplexed as to how one loses 1 of 3 ooths. The world may never know.

Possibly, a couple of mantids hatched super early and realizing they were about to become chameleon snacks, they combined their strength and hid their ootheca away to a secret and safe place. It was a survival of the fittest, and some managed to make it to adulthood and in their secret place, they made their own babies. Generations of mantids have been surviving in this sheltered spot and just waiting for the day they are strong and big enough to take over the world! Mwah ha ha ha!

Or, maybe it accidentally went in the trash can.

Two of the last ooths that I had hatched out parasitic wasps! They ate all the mantid babies while still in egg.

Cute in pictures, not so much in real life.

... Still waiting for my 3 mantis ooths to hatch... although probably for the best as it's just turning into spring in Canada land.

Warning - never let those ooths out of your sight.
1. Two mantids are gonna hatch early
2. They are gonna hide a oothaca because they don't want the nymphs to be chameleon snacks.
3. In their hidden community, they are training like Navy Seals.
4. They are gonna take over the WORLD!

@ChamelaChameleon Just wanted you to know I’m thinking about you today. Some friends emerged last night and were having a wild party. All five are totally crashed out right now. For all of their wild flapping around, they left only 6 eggs. I’m sure tonight will be more once they get their proboscis’ into the sugar water. Maybe even their last couple of friends will come out and join in the fun. Whoooo hooo! Hawk moth party!
