Silkworm Eggs

[Bobusx]

Well, I was honestly tempted to put this question in the "bugs" forum considering the silk worms actually Are bugs but I decided just to ask it here instead.

Do the silkworm eggs actually die? Or can I just keep them in my backpack till I hatch another Male/Female then start using the left over eggs for silk? That would make the process of silk collecting a lot easier since I can literally just have an infinite supply of eggs.

No, eggs do not die
Yes, you need to hatch large batches and only use some for silk.

Here's how I do it. Once you have your first pair let them lay eggs, continue to hatch eggs, into cubbard with leaves, let them cocoon = more moths = more eggs until you have a nice supply. Then use some of the eggs to make silk with until you begin to run low on eggs (I do 12 at a time) then hatch your highest eggs for breeders. Do this = infinite suuply and never having to catch moths again.

silkworm eggs do not die, is the only way you can keep them but make sure you do not put them down they disappear
