>>I went to that insectlore website and their site says that a 1/2 lb. of chow is enough to only feed like 15 or so silkworms to adulthood. If it's the same type of chow I got from mulberryfarms...that can't be right. Is it a different type or the same stuff?



Don't forget when you mix a half pound of powdered chow from MF you end up with 2 lbs of ready to eat chow. Cut that into quarters and I think it's probably pretty close.
