Day Thirty

The largest of the silkworms is weighing in at around two grams, its length six centimetres.
I'm feeling quite concerned that the larvae are getting so large that they may begin to squash each other.
Because of this concern I'm contemplating adding another level to the condominium to give them more room to spread out.

About fifty more silkworms left home late yesterday, to replace the ones lost by one of my customers.
She revealed to me that she had a Glade Air Freshener in the same room as the silkworms and that this is what may have caused their demise.
I have received a message from her today telling me that this new batch is thriving.  They are residing in her daughter's bedroom as opposed to the kitchen.
