 Silkworms!!!!

Hey guys! I have just had my first succesful round with breeding silkworms! I have around 500,000 eggs, and I want to start elling them! I am just wondering if anyone has any ideas of where i can start selling. Or if anyone is interested with buying some silkies for their animals.

I havn’t come up with an official price yet. However, they a mulberryfarms silkworms, and therefor I will sell them at $9.99 for 100 silkworms. I will also sell chow, the price is depending on how much you want. Each set of 100 silkies, will come with a caresheet. If you are interested in buying some contact me at:

miller.ryan46@ yahoo.com (no spaces)

I am thinking about making a website... Also, I am getting a license to be able to ship and sell live insects.

the food that I put in with the silkies, is a package of mulberry leaves. It is enough to feed the silkies for 1-2 weeks.

Before I decide if I should buy some how can I figure out if my turtles will eat one? Because they are picky eaters. They hate crickets and green grasshoppers, but love brown grasshoppers. I know weird huh?

I don’t really want to waste money on them if they don’t like them. I know it’s only a little bit of money but I’m trying to save money. I’m finally getting them a UVB bulb tomorrow I’ll be getting the bulb and clamp lamp tomorrow. Are the clamp lamps good?
