How to Acquire

Silkworms are hatched from Silkworm Eggs by placing the eggs on an Herbalist Table for 7 real life hours. Once hatched, the worms need to feed as described below, so it is important to move them into a container with food within 6 real life hours.

Once you have hatched your Silkworm Eggs into worms, place them in another container that can hold a decent amount such as a cupboard along with four times as many Mulberry Leaves. Every Game: 12h (Real: 3h 39m) the Silkworms will check for leaves and eat one, in this case counter on worm picture increases +1; if there are no leaves, they will check again in three real life hours. If at that point there are still no leaves, they will die. As a rule of thumb, put four leaves per silkworm in a container.

After a silkworm has eaten leaves 4 times, it will turn into a Silkworm Cocoon.

Stacking Note: Normally, you cannot stack silkworms; However, If they somehow are stacked, they cannot eat the leaves and the worms will die. It is okay to stack Mulberry Leaves in a cupboard for feeding.
