Hey all,

I thought a silkmoth lasts only upto 1 week. But i just had mine died about a few days ago, and he was asactly 21 days old. I was wondering if anybody had theirs longer?

There are always animals that are the exception to the rule.
I don't think many people are keeping track on the longevity of a silkworm. You might try the insect forum since most who keep insects here use them for food so life span is generally quite short..
