All day, Silkworms just eat Mulberry leaves!!!

catipilers do get thirsty so get somthing like a dolls litill plat and add abitt of wter

A silkworm can live up to 4 weeks and 3 days. They can live for 5 days after mating.

Silk is spun from the fibres of the cocoon of the mulberry silkworm, the caterpillar of a type of moth. There are other species of bug which produce workable silk, but aren't generally used for textiles, though research continues. Commercial silk is strong, easily dyed and wonderfully reflective of light. So the short answer is, silk originates from a caterpillar's bottom. Did you really want to know that?

It comes out as a adult silkworm if it is lucky or,it will eventually die.This depends.

silkworm larvae spin the silk yarn around its body. The saliva from its mouth come out and in the air it became the beautiful luster silver yarn harder than steel of its denier

They are just called eggs, what hatches from them are called larva or larvae.

If the moth hatches, it chews its way out of the cocoon, cutting all the silk fibers. for silk production, the caterpillar is killed before it hatches, so the silk strands can be unwound and remain whole.

Catch the cocoons before the moth emerges, and soak in hot water for a time, try 30 to 60 minutes. Start pulling the 'fluff' away and you will come to one thread that starts to unravel. Put aside and do the same with your other cocoons. When you have enough threads to make a yarn of the size you want. Put all the cocoons in a bowl of water, pull the threads through the teeth of a fine comb and start winding those threads onto a cardboard 'bobbin' or old cotton real or a wool winder. Keep going until you use up all the thread. Rescue the moth chrysalis and put it in a safe dark place like a shoe box with a lid with holes in it, and allow to emerge when ready. To mate and hatch more little silk worm eggs to later give you more silk.

because it is more radent and polished with a better stretching arena.......

silk farmer wait until the silk is open.

well, catapillars dont really spin silk, silk worms make silk. catapillars make a sort of spider string but only when they cacoon themselfs up.

There are many silk flower making tools available on the market of variety quality and cost, however, some of these tools are home made or are very poor copies which may look similar or high quality. Japan is famous for The Flower Master Sets and designed also.

Some characteristics of silk clothing is it is soft and smooth to the touch and it also has great absorbancy. Silk is cool in the summer time and warm in the winter as well.

The silkworm makes a coccoon. When the worm does this, you drop the coccoon into warm water and let it soak. After a while, the "glue" that the silkworm uses to make the cocoon dissolves and the fibres come apart in the water. Carefully find the end of the cocoon and start to unravel it. It should come apart easily and the silk will dry to a usable product.

No. Wool is not a thermoplastic fiber because when exposed to heat, it does not melt and change.

The leaves of many trees and shrubs. They have been raised on oak, cherry, walnut, and many other species.

i think it is flexible

Warm to the touch-no.

Lyon became the location in France where silk became a viable economic force.

Silk cotton is considered mor eco friendly then silk because to get silk we have to kill the silk worm.Killing animals is harmul to enviroment.But silk cotton is plucked from the Kapok Tree without harming the tree.
