Silkworms are a species of insect (Bombyx Mori) that is domesticated, meaning that they are dependent on Humans to survive.
So Silkworms live happily in the breeding box you provide for them and do not attempt to escape, they lack fear of predators and are used to being handled by humans.
Silkworms grow and cocoon in around 6-8 weeks. They remain in their cocoons for approximately 10 days before emerging as moths.
The moths do not fly and will also stay in the breeding box, no lid is necessary. The moths live for approximately 3 days.
The empty cocoons make beautiful glossy white silk which is excellent for Art Project and is fun to prepare!
