Can silkworms eat beetroot leaves

Answer 1

Apparently yes, silkworms can/will eat beetroot leaves but not if they have already been eating mulberry leaves. But this is hearsay for me. I have raised them on lettuce leaves from start to finish, however.

Answer 2

Keeping Silkworms can be a hard task. Silkworms do not eat lettuce, their preferred diet is White Mulberry Tree Leaves, Osage Orange Tree Leaves.

Answer 3

In an emergency, yes. But they need mulberry leaves to survive in the long run, so they shouldn't eat lettuce for too many days.
