Silkworms are still available Just ask the guys at Kelly ville pet store. They are easy to breed
Just keep feeding the leaves and they will mature and cocoon as soon as you got cocoons put them into a cardboard box lets say 30 by 30 cm(escape proof) as soon as the moths hatch they will mate and lay eggs the eggs will be laid on the cardboard. After a few days open the box and cut out the egg clutches and put them into a fridge for 3 months and then take them out and hatch them. And then start all over again

Yes it is. 3 months is time, not effort, hence easy not quick.

Does anyone know if Kellyville pets ships silkworms upto Newcastle, or better yet if theres anyone that sells them up here? I saw some a few months back up on the Gold Coast (to tell you the truth Id thought theyd gone extinct for some reason.lol) and they looked like they might be good as a treat for my juvi Eastern Water Dragons and im always interested in setting up more insect breeding colonies for the future .
Cheers, Jay
