Silkworms are a great staple. Problem is that they are VERY delicate. I recommend that you do not buy too many at once if you are going to get them.

There are other fine staples and alternatives to crickets as well:
superworms
butterworms
earthworms
phoenix worms
roaches

Roaches are the best for breeding purposes. Lobsters will multiply like crazy.
