Silk Worms

Wow... over the past few weeks we have witnessed the entire life cycle of our silk worms. We saw them grow bigger and bigger until they spun their silk cocoons. We saw them nibble their way out of the cocoon and turn into moths. Now they have layed eggs and some moths have started to die. What did you find the most interesting thing about our silk worms?

    I found interesting that silkworms also have black stripes and that the moths die in two or one day -jasmine
