Did you guys do the silk worm thing?I had some silk worms last year. My mate had a zillion. They aren't all they're cracked up to be.
Uni Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I had some silk worms last year. My mate had a zillion. They aren't all they're cracked up to be.As a kid it was fun, until my mom made us go fetch our own mulberry leaves. Now when I see kids with them it grosses me out.

We used to have a huge mulberry tree in the garden, Kids from the neighbourhood would be around constantly in silkworm season!

Uni Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Is it the kids that gross you out, or the silkworms, or the memory that your mother made you go fetch the leaves yourself? Is that like a therapy session or a grammar session? Too early either way.

Tumbleweed Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Watching my kids stomp and roll in piles of mulberries in their babygrows...then getting crapped on by their mom...

Kids haven't done the silkworm thing in a few year's, thank goodness. My youngest would buy them at school in the morning and sell them during 2e break for a huge profit.[emoji23] [emoji23] Edited December 1, 2015 by Gen Tumbleweed and Lexx 2

As kids we seemed to do it every year...my old man even crafted a little wooden silk wheel for extracting the silk from the cocoon! Gen and Lexx 2
