#silkworm

edit: people are starting to say some "my worst nightmare" or "eeeww no that one is yucky and scary" comments on this like they do on any bug post and id like to say. it's fine if you don't like bugs it's fine if you're scared of bugs but don't put that on MY post clearly talking about how much i like them and how cute i think they are. you can make your own damn post about how much you hate wasps or spiders or whatever. i'm blocking people who make these kinds of comments.

Little silkworms spinning. I have been looking after some for a friend who is raising peace-silk for a project, will meet them again as moths in a week or so!

Silkworm (NES) (1988)

(Bombyx mori; commonly known as domestic silk moths, are a result of selective breeding. The process of harvesting raw silk kills the silkworm in the pupal stage.)

v big fan of silk worms + moths

I raised some chunky silkworm moth babies recently and they're so so cute
