How to raise silkworm babies?

When raising a silkworm baby, in the weather with suitable temperature, sprinkle some water on the silkworm eggs to make them hatch faster. After the eggs hatch, the ant silkworm is placed on the fresh and tender mulberry leaves, and the tender mulberry leaves are replaced every day.

The ant silkworm is very small and its body is black. When feeding mulberry leaves, it is best to choose soft mulberry leaves, and at the same time, it is best to cut them short with scissors to make them convenient for ants to eat. After molting for the fourth time, the silkworm baby's body is already relatively transparent and ready to enter the spinning state. In about five days, you can harvest cocoons.

Matters needing attention in sericulture

If it is difficult to get mulberry leaves, you can pick them outside and put them back, then sprinkle some water in the refrigerator to keep them fresh. Let silkworms have mulberry leaves to eat every day. If there are no leaves, you can also feed some vegetable leaves, such as camphor leaves or lettuce leaves.

Mulberry leaves should be kept fresh, fed in moderation once, and the rest should be kept fresh in the refrigerator. Mulberry leaves should be clean, or silkworm babies will get sick after eating them. If the mulberry leaves turn black and moldy, don't feed the silkworm babies. Wash your hands as much as possible when feeding mulberry leaves to silkworm to prevent germs from infecting silkworm babies. Change mulberry leaves gently, move them with feathers or a soft brush, and clean the box diligently.
