In daily life or work and study, everyone must be exposed to composition. The composition must focus on the theme and make in-depth explanations around the same theme. Avoid rambling, the theme is scattered or even has no theme. Have no clue when it comes to writing an essay? Below is a fourth-grade composition on sericulture that I compiled for you. You are welcome to learn from it and refer to it. I hope it will be helpful to you. Fourth grade silkworm raising composition 1
Spring is here when all things grow. The science teacher gave each of us a pack of silkworm eggs so that we could increase our knowledge while raising silkworms.
When I got home, the first thing I did was to put the silkworm eggs on a piece of white paper and prepare them for hatching. Silkworm eggs are purple-gray, not much bigger than sesame seeds, round with a small concave dot in the middle. Three or four days later, something small and black crawled out of the silkworm egg. Take a closer look, "Yeah, it's an ant silkworm!" I shouted, and quickly used a writing brush to place the ant silkworm on the mulberry leaves that had been cut into strips. After a week, the black ant silkworm took off its coat and became white, fat, thick and long, so cute! Now there are more silkworms to eat, from one or two to three or four. After a while, a big hole will appear on the mulberry leaves, and a "rustling" sound will be made from time to time. The way the little silkworms eat is so interesting! They first crawled up and down to find food, and then ate food in various postures. Some of them hugged the mulberry leaves tightly; some wrapped their bodies around the mulberry leaves; some raised their heads high, as if I have achieved quite a lot; some of them want to squeeze out their friends, which is really interesting! A few weeks later, I found that many silkworms in the shoe box were "hunger strike". After asking my mother, I found out that those silkworms were about to spin silk! Sure enough, early the next morning, those silkworms swung around, wrapped themselves in silk, and weaved a cocoon. The cocoon was white, like a shrunken egg.
An ancient poem said well, "The spring silkworm will not run out of silk until it dies, and the wax torch will turn to ashes before the tears dry up." Raising silkworms not only taught me knowledge, but also made me understand that the life of silkworms is for Giving silk to people, this quality of selfless dedication is worth learning. At this point, silkworms are my teachers. Fourth grade silkworm raising composition 2
"Spring silkworms will not run out of silk until they die." In order to explore the mysteries of silkworms, my family and I decided to raise silkworms and have a close contact with silkworms.
The first thing I saw was a pile of black round grains, which were silkworm eggs. We put it in a small open box. Soon, the silkworms hatched out, small and black, like little black braids. Except for the white head, the rest is all black. After a few days, the baby silkworms turned white. It can be clearly seen that the mouth of the silkworm is made of black dots. Under the black dots, there are two small teeth. The silkworms rely on these two small teeth to eat mulberry. of leaves. In a few days, the silkworms will molt. The silkworms refused to eat or drink before molting, so I thought the silkworms were sick. When silkworms molt, two layers of skin will appear at the end of the silkworm. Then one layer of skin will shed automatically, while the other layer of skin will not move. After molting, the silkworm began to eat and drink again. The silkworms that have finished molting are getting whiter and whiter, and the tip of their tail slowly stands up.
As the silkworm gets bigger and bigger, its appetite becomes larger and larger, and the silkworm excrement (poop) it pulls becomes larger and larger. The current silkworms should be third or fourth instar silkworms. The body becomes white and the mouth becomes flatter, making it easier to eat mulberry leaves. The tip of the tail stands very straight. It is said that everything produced from each part of the silkworm is precious. The silk spun by silkworms can be woven into silk quilts, which can provide warmth to people. Silkworm poop is used in traditional Chinese medicine and can be used to make medicine, soup, or cook dishes. Moreover, silkworms were already a "treasure" in the hands of the ancients, so many poems describing silkworms were published, among which "Spring silkworms will not run out of silk until they die" is a typical example.
Silkworms are cute in our minds, and they are full of treasures. I hope that we can all hold hands together to protect silkworms and animals. Fourth grade silkworm breeding composition 3
A few days ago, the group leader gave me some silkworm babies. These silkworms are as white as flesh worms, growing one after another, which makes people feel a little sick. But this was a practical activity assigned by the teacher, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and take them in.
But after being in contact with them for a long time, I fell in love with them. I thought they were quite cute and gradually fell in love with them.
Every day, I have to observe the changes in these silkworm babies. Suddenly, I discovered that there was a small black spot under each section of their abdomen. "What is this?" I asked my mother. But my mother didn’t know either, so I had to go online and ask for help. It turns out that the little black dot is the valve of the silkworm. The silkworm does not have a fixed body temperature. Its body temperature will change with the surrounding temperature. There are many spiracles on both sides of the silkworm's body. Once the surrounding temperature changes, it adjusts its body temperature by opening and closing valves, allowing the body's temperature to adapt to the surrounding environment. No wonder their bodies always feel cool when I touch them.
The silkworm babies are getting bigger and bigger, and it takes a lot of effort to change the mulberry leaves every time. It is really laborious to let them leave the withered mulberry leaves. Their feet are firmly stuck to the mulberry leaves, and their tails are like a clamp, clamping hard and refusing to leave. Why is this? Are they reluctant to leave the withered mulberry leaves, or do they feel insecure? I can only find the answer myself again. It turns out that each silkworm has eight pairs of legs. The first three sections are used for climbing high, and the last five sections are like small round suction cups that can firmly absorb mulberry leaves or anything to prevent them from falling from above. "It turns out they are protecting themselves!" I couldn't help but sigh.
The little silkworm has so much knowledge. This is really a vast and boundless sea of ??knowledge. This practical activity really opened my eyes. Fourth grade silkworm raising composition 4
My mother raised silkworm babies in the countryside. I asked my mother: "Why do we raise silkworms?" My mother said: "Because we want the silkworms to spin silk and make cocoons, and then peel off the cocoons to make quilts and cotton-padded jackets."
It's the weekend, I'm noisy I wanted to go to the countryside with my mother to play. My mother said, "The countryside is very dirty. You will get your clothes and shoes dirty." I said, "I will listen to you and I will definitely not get my clothes and shoes dirty." In this way, my mother is willing to take me to play in the countryside.
I sat on the back of my mother’s battery car, and soon I arrived in the countryside, and I finally saw the silkworm baby. They all stuck out their heads and crawled around. I asked my mother: "What's wrong with them?" My mother said: "They are hungry. I need to feed them right away." So my mother hurried to pick mulberry leaves. Feed them.
In this way, my mother and I came to the mulberry garden. The mulberry trees were full of purple-red mulberry fruits, which looked very beautiful. My mother wrapped a large bag of mulberry fruits in mulberry leaves, and I ate them while my mother was picking mulberry leaves. I saw a small bug crawling on a mulberry tree, so I caught it and ate the mulberries. While playing with it, I accidentally stuck its hair on my arm. When my mother finished picking the mulberry leaves, she found that the edges of my mouth were all covered with purple-red mulberry pulp, and my arms were covered with red spots. I can't laugh or cry. When I got home, my mother washed all my arms and face, and applied toilet water on my arms.
Then, we went to feed mulberry leaves to the silkworm babies. We put the mulberry leaves on the silkworm babies, and immediately heard the "rustling" sound of the silkworm babies. After a while, they all climbed on top to eat. I seemed to hear them saying: "Thank you for bringing us such a beautiful thing." Delicious food, we will definitely produce big and good silkworm cocoons to repay you! Fourth grade silkworm composition 5
People say that "the silkworm will not run out until it dies." Do you know the life of a silkworm? ? Listen to me slowly.
One day, Xiaomi’s mother gave me some silkworms. I opened the box and was shocked: a group of black silkworm babies were huddled together, eating the green silkworms with relish. The mulberry leaves are so cute! When I got home, I carefully took the mulberry leaves that my father had picked from the countryside. When I was about to put them in the box, I thought of what Teacher Shi said: Silkworms cannot eat water. Otherwise, you will have diarrhea and death. I quickly dried the mulberry leaves with paper towels. Then, I put the mulberry leaves in the silkworm box and put the other mulberry leaves in the refrigerator.
Two or three days later, when I opened the box, I was surprised to find that the silkworms were not "little black" but "little white" silkworms! But what are those black, walnut-shaped things? I heard from my parents that this is silkworm excrement, also known as silkworm excrement. What a great work it can do! When I was a kid, I even slept on silkworm silt pillows! Because it absorbs sweat, I heard it can also be used as medicine!
There are many interesting things about these guys! One day, I found a fat, white silkworm running rampant and crawling all over other silkworms. I saw it, couldn't help laughing, and put the silkworm in the corner.
As silkworms grow larger, they need more and more mulberry leaves. Teacher Shi once said: People need three meals a day, and silkworms also need three meals a day. Since we are not at home during the day, we grab a lot of mulberry leaves and put them in the box every morning so that they can eat as much as they want. One day, I saw a lot of skins in the box. What were they? Teacher Shi told me that this is the skin shed by silkworms.
Day after day, after about half a month, the silkworm became yellow and shiny, shaking its head back and forth in the corner of the box all day long. At this time, I knew that the silkworms were going to "go up the mountain"! They are starting to form cocoons. Each cocoon turns from transparent at first to white and round in the end, and feels soft to the touch. This cocoon can be made into a silk quilt. Every winter, I always make a silk quilt. Because it is warm, soft and very comfortable.
What’s the story between you and silkworms? Tell me about it! Fourth grade silkworm breeding composition 6
Why is Class 49 so lively on Friday afternoon? It turned out that they were holding a sericulture results exchange meeting.
The Chinese teacher strode to the podium, wrote the theme of this exchange meeting on the blackboard, and then began to talk about the knowledge about silkworm cocoons. For example, the colors of cocoons include white, off-white, golden, light yellow, red, pink, etc. He also asked us to measure the size of the cocoon. I measured it to be about 3 cm long and 1.5 cm wide. The teacher said that the thing inside the cocoon is called a pupa, and silkworm moths are derived from it. He also said that if you want to see what the pupa looks like, you can peel off the cocoon and have a look, but don't peel too much, otherwise it will die. .
As soon as they heard this, the students all started to peel off. Yang Junyi and I peeled off a yellow cocoon first. When we first started peeling, we were afraid that the cocoon would be peeled to death, so we just pulled out the silk bit by bit, but it took a long time and we didn't finish it. So Yang Junyi decided to pinch one end of the cocoon with his nails, trying to make a small hole in the cocoon. But this method is not as good as cutting the threads. After pinching for a long time, not a few threads were broken. In the end, we had to use a trick--cut with a knife. This method really worked. We cut the place where Yang Junyi pinched with a knife, and a small hole appeared. But we found that the pupa was very dark and soft, and felt abnormal. When we asked the teacher, we found out that the pupa was dead. What we finally cut out was a dead pupa, which was really disappointing. We had no choice but to pick another pupa and cut it, and this time it was finally a living one. We took out the pupa and observed it carefully. We found that its body was khaki in color and its head was like that of a bee. There is a black line and it looks cute. The two of us put it on a piece of white paper and looked at it over and over again.
At this time, the school bell rang, and I happily went home with my beloved pupa. Fourth-grade silkworm raising composition 7
This semester, Teacher Shi Shi gave us a task-raising silkworms. Upon hearing the news, the students were so excited that they jumped three feet high. As soon as school was over, I ran home as fast as lightning and told my father and mother about it. I excitedly took out the small black silkworm eggs in the science bag and put them in a small transparent box. The new look of a silkworm emerging from its shell.
Every day when I come home from school, I take a look. At first, the silkworm eggs were pitch black, like small sesame seeds, and gradually turned white, and a small, round black spot could be faintly seen inside. One day when I came home from school, I unexpectedly found several small and ugly silkworm babies crawling out of their eggs. I excitedly called my parents over.
Silkworm breeding officially started.
My father and I immediately found a beautiful cardboard box, laid a few pieces of spotless white paper underneath, and poked a few small holes in the lid. Just like that, Silkworm Baby's new house was completed. Then, it was time to serve them "dishes". I ran downstairs as fast as I could, picked a few fresh mulberry leaves, cut them into pieces, and put the mulberry leaves into the box. I saw the silkworms crawling slowly. He came up and took small bites of the food with relish. The silkworm babies grew up day by day, and their appetites became bigger and bigger. A few fresh mulberry leaves were chewed into semicircles in the blink of an eye. They eat day and night, but every few days, it will remain motionless and undergo a great shedding. Each time it sheds its skin, it becomes a little fatter and whiter. The fed silkworms have different shapes. Some are lazily motionless, some are slowly stretching and shrinking, as if they are looking for friends to play with, and some are looking around with their heads raised.
When one day they become fat and become transparent, they stop eating. They found a safe and comfortable place and built a warm house. The house is very beautiful, with golden, light yellow and snow-white colors.
I love my silkworm babies. Fourth-grade silkworm raising composition 8
Recently, there was an assignment in science class: raising silkworms. I came home happily, opened the box and counted: one, two, three... six, seven, there are seven in one ***. Hehe, as I was counting, I remembered the story of the seven dwarfs. Since the seven dwarfs have their own names, then these silkworm babies should also have their names! So, I came up with some interesting names for this silkworm baby. The first one eats a lot and eats fast, so I call it "Glutton"; the second one sleeps every time I see it, so I call it "Little Sloth"; the third one has stripes on its back, so it's called "Zebra Stripe" "; The fourth one is very active, so I call it "Little Naughty"; the fifth one reminds me of the cute little yellow people, so I call it "Little Yellow Silkworm"; the sixth one, whenever I look at it, I look up and use doubtful expressions. The one with the eyes looking at me is called "Little Question Mark"; the last one with the black back is called "Dark Messenger".
Later, I found that each silkworm had a thorn on its back. I didn’t know why. After checking the information, I found out that the sharp ones are male and the round ones are female. I counted two males and five females.
When silkworms eat mulberry leaves, you can’t find anything unless you look carefully. But when I look closely, I find that silkworms eat mulberry leaves in a regular pattern: eat from left to right, repeat nine to twelve times, Climb forward twice and continue eating. What surprised me most was that these silkworms rested after eating mulberry leaves, and they even raised their heads when resting. They lasted for at least one to two minutes, and at most four to five minutes.
After observing silkworms, I suddenly felt that silkworms are quite mysterious to me. I couldn’t wait to see silkworms shed their skin. Fourth grade composition on silkworm raising 9
On Tuesday, the teacher assigned an assignment that was interesting for boys but scary for some girls, that is - raising silkworms.
In the last science class in the afternoon, the teacher handed out the silkworm eggs. I was very excited and gently touched their bodies with my clean little hands. Wow! They are like babies that have not yet been born. At this time, the teacher said loudly: "Put away the silkworm eggs! get out of class is over!"
After school, I carefully took the silkworm eggs home. I told my mother that this was a job, so she started raising silkworms with me.
The next day, I got up early and ran to the silkworm eggs and found that the baby silkworms had come out. But, I don’t have any mulberry leaves yet! what do I do? My little silkworm will soon starve to death. I was very anxious at that time. Suddenly, I saw a few silkworms eating mulberry leaf residue! So my strong heart told me that you can definitely find the mulberry leaves, come on! At this time, I glanced at my watch and screamed: "Oh my God, I'm late!" I ran out of the house and took a few breaths. He continued running and reached the shuttle bus stop in one breath. On the road, I was like a horse running very fast!
At school, I asked my classmates for a super-large mulberry leaf. After school, I rushed into the house and quickly put the mulberry leaves into the silkworm nest.
After a few days, I found that my little silkworm had grown up a lot.
It has changed from ant silkworm to Sanzero silkworm. Wow! They eat so fast, the mulberry leaves are about to be eaten up again. I secretly thought in my heart: "If the mulberry leaves are really eaten, then they will starve to death. No, I have to find a way quickly." At this moment, my mother said: "I asked the children for some Some mulberry leaves, you can bring them back tomorrow.” The next day, I took the mulberry leaves and replaced them with new leaves when I got home.
A few days later, when I went to change the mulberry leaves for the silkworms, I suddenly realized that there was no need to change them. You must be wondering why? Because they are cocooned.
In the days to come, I will continue to observe the changes in silkworms and carefully record their growth process. Fourth grade sericulture composition 10
There was a craze for sericulture in our school, and I went to a stall and bought a few for fun. I took a look, what an ugly little silkworm! This little silkworm is only half the size of a sesame seed and has fine hairs on its body. An aunt saw my thoughts and said to me: "After two days, the little silkworms will become white and fat."
After two days, the originally black little silkworms turned yellow He is yellow, has a lot less hair on his body, and is a little fatter than before. I cut the mulberry leaves into fine pieces and fed them to the little silkworms little by little. After a few days, the little silkworm has become white and fat, with no hair on its body at all. It has grown bigger and has a bigger appetite. I must feed it more mulberry leaves. One day, I found that the silkworm, which could never sit still for a moment, became very quiet. Mulberry leaves, which were originally attractive to it, also had no effect. Is it dead? I hurriedly ran to ask my mother. My mother said that the silkworms are about to molt, and each time the silkworms molt, they grow one year older. After listening to my mother's words, I immediately turned from worry to joy.
Under my careful feeding, the silkworms grew white and fat, and the leaves of the mulberry trees next to my house were not enough for them to eat. The silkworm's mouth is also very cunning, and it doesn't want old or yellow mulberry leaves. I had to go further to mine. When I find a lot of leaves, I will pick more and put them in the refrigerator.
When the silkworms eat, Doudou’s mouth is like a harvester, eating "swissly". Some silkworms pressed on top of another silkworm, making the silkworm below unable to move at all: some bit out a hole from the middle; others held the mulberry leaves with their feet and ate them greedily. One of the little silkworms was particularly strange. It went to the leaves and bit the stems of the leaves. Some holes of different sizes immediately appeared on the mulberry leaves.
As the saying goes: Spring silkworms will not run out of silk until they die, and wax torches will not dry until they turn to ashes. I hope Xiaocan will grow up quickly and let me see how it spins silk and spins cocoons. Fourth grade silkworm farming composition 11
This semester, the science teacher assigned us an interesting task - observing the life of silkworms.
On Friday afternoon, I couldn’t wait to go to the school to buy silkworms. The silkworms here are black, yellow, and white. I bought five small white silkworms. When I got home, I put them in a box. The little white silkworms looked up at me, as if saying: "Master, I'm hungry, I'm hungry." I quickly brought a few mulberry leaves to these little guys. I saw them squirming slowly, crawling to the mulberry leaves and eating with relish.
A few days later, I went to see the silkworms. The silkworm babies had become white and fat. Several holes had been chewed on the mulberry leaves. There were also many small black particles in the box. My mother said: " This is the feces of silkworms." I cleaned up the small particles and put a few fresh mulberry leaves. I gently touched the silkworm, it was soft and so comfortable! A few days later, the silkworms became white and bright, and slept motionless on the mulberry leaves. At this time, I became anxious and thought to myself: "Is the silkworm baby sick? Why is it not moving?" With doubts, I quickly checked online. According to the data, the reason can be found now. It turns out that silkworms stop eating after shedding their skin five times and crawl to mulberry clusters to make cocoons. Afterwards, they will crawl to a corner of the box, spin out silk, and turn into cocoons. The cocoon is oval, snow-white, like small pigeon eggs, so beautiful! The silkworm in the cocoon made no sound. After several days, the cocoon opened the window and turned into a beautiful moth girl.
By observing the life of silkworms, I learned about the huge contributions silkworms have made to mankind.
Silk can be made into silk quilts, silk masks, silk... Silkworms have been silently paying and making contributions to mankind throughout their lives. I must learn from silkworms' great and selfless dedication. Fourth grade silkworm farming composition 12
One day, my mother came home from work with a box in her hand. I asked curiously: "Mom, what is that in your hand?" Mom listened. , smiled mysteriously and said, "You will know what's inside if you open it and take a look." I opened the box excitedly. It turned out that there were many silkworm eggs in the box. I was so happy that I yelled. : "Great!" But, how to raise it? My mother said: "Spray the silkworm eggs with water so that they have sufficient moisture. Remember to observe them every day. Maybe in a few days, the baby silkworms will be born."
I followed what my mother said. Sure enough, a few days later, when I looked at my silkworm eggs again, I found something black moving. I immediately called my mother over. When she saw it, she said, "This is the baby silkworm." Right?" I said, "Maybe." Because neither my mother nor I thought that the little silkworm would be born with this color. My mother and I quickly bought a lot of fresh mulberry leaves and put them in so that they could eat well and grow up quickly.
A week has passed, and there are already many small silkworms in the small box, but I don’t know why. Some of the small silkworms may have died due to malnutrition. Soon, there were only five little silkworms in the small box, but I will not give up. I will work hard to raise these five little silkworms. When I saw that the old leaves were a little dry, I immediately replaced them with new leaves. When I saw that the small box was a little dirty, I immediately washed the small box.
It has been more than ten days since my mother brought the little silkworms back. I have raised these little silkworms to be white and fat. When my mother saw that I had raised the silkworms so well, she couldn't help praising me.
I see these little silkworms every day now, and my heart feels sweet. Fourth grade silkworm raising composition 13
On March 18 this year, the school asked the students to raise silkworms themselves. They were all so excited that they couldn’t describe how excited they were. Each of us received more than 20 small silkworms and a bag of mulberry leaves from the school, and took them home to raise with our parents.
When I got home, I carefully held the white silkworm babies as white as snow and built them a new home with a wooden box. The silkworm babies have soft bodies and are so cute crawling around. Every day after school, I take the time to feed them carefully. First wash and dry the fresh mulberry leaves, then sprinkle them into small pieces, and then sprinkle them on the silkworms. I saw the little silkworm crawling from the bottom of the leaf to the top of the leaf. At this time, the leaf gradually became smaller and the body of the little silkworm gradually became larger. They shed a layer of skin every few days. The silkworms eat mulberry leaves day and night and keep growing. Maybe 20 silkworms were eaten, and the bag of mulberry leaves distributed by the school was quickly eaten. Dad bought mulberry leaves on Taobao twice, and they grew quickly as they were eaten. One centimeter, two centimeters... until one day it became fat, big, milky white and shiny, and became lazy. Several times during this period, I held mulberry leaves and put them near their mouths, but they did not move. I was very worried and kept muttering: Are the silkworm babies dead? How should I explain it to the teacher? I was a little frowning. At this time, I saw Science Teacher Wang saying on WeChat: "Silkworms need to shed their skin five times before they can mature. They do not eat silkworm leaves when they shed their skin. After they become the fifth instar silkworm, they will spin silk and make cocoons." I Then I felt relieved. Soon, I found that the silkworm babies were spinning out a lot of silk one after another in the corner of the "house". They were spinning more and more, and they were tightly wrapped in it, and their bodies gradually shrank, forming a thick oval shape. white silkworm cocoon.
They turned into pupae in the cocoons. After a few days, the pupae turned into moths and emerged from the cocoons. After these moths mated, they laid many eggs. I carefully collected the silkworm eggs and raised them again next spring.
After more than a month of raising silkworms, I realized that the life of silkworms is selfless. It is true that "spring silkworms will not run out of silk until they die"! Fourth grade silkworm farming composition 14
Spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and everything is new. Along the way, I went to my grandma’s house to spend the weekend with great excitement.
As I walked along the roadside, a mulberry tree full of young leaves attracted me. It reminded me of the silkworms I raised last year. After a winter, I wonder how they are doing now.
When I got home in the evening, I couldn’t wait to open the box containing the cocoons. I really didn’t want to see it, and I was shocked when I saw that a group of inconspicuous little guys in our family were squirming lazily in the box. The needle-thin silkworms are only 2 to 3 millimeters long. They are all black and look like a group of Cinderellas. More than 40 silkworms frightened us. We were not prepared at all. My mother and I were so anxious that we were sweating.
Without mulberry leaves, would we starve to death? Can so many little lives be ruined? I muttered anxiously. I quickly checked the computer, and luckily, it turned out that lettuce leaves can also fill the belly of silkworms. I happened to have a lettuce plant at home, and I was relieved.
I saw my mother and I fully armed, with magnifying glasses, brushes, and flashlights set up on a table. "There is one here." "Be careful, don't leave that one behind!" I took a flashlight and carefully searched for the silkworm babies. My mother took a brush and carefully swept the silkworms into their "little house", and then covered it again. "Carpet" - cabbage leaves, served with food - lettuce leaves.
At this time, a little silkworm has already started the dinner party. It really enjoys it! Looking at them lazily, I felt a sense of responsibility. I seemed to be the "king" of this "little kingdom", and I would definitely feed my "subjects" well.
Looking at the greedy appearance of these Cinderellas, I suddenly thought: when they grow up a little, I should divide them among some classmates so that they can also know the joy of raising silkworms and the joy of harvest! Fourth grade silkworm raising composition 15
My little cousin gave me a mulberry leaf with two silkworm babies lying lazily on it. I was so happy that I quickly found a box and put the silkworm babies in it. I thought: One mulberry leaf can last them a day. Reality and imagination are completely different. It turns out that they are foodies! Before long, all that was left of the mulberry leaf was the residue that they did not eat. I had to go to the park near my home to find some fresh mulberry leaves and feed them to them.
How do they eat? In order to understand the reason why such a small person can eat so fast, I did not close the lid after putting the mulberry leaves, and squatted aside to observe them carefully. I saw them crawling slowly on the mulberry leaves. But their heads would be raised high from time to time, and the corners of their mouths would be moving quickly. A hole would be bitten out of the mulberry leaves in a short while. It seemed that their title of foodies was indeed well-deserved.
The next day, there were only residues left in the box, and there were also some small black things left, probably from their poop. I picked a few small mulberry leaves like the first day. I wanted to put the silkworm babies on the fresh mulberry leaves, and then dump the residue and black feces, but the silkworm babies stuck to a piece of residue, so I had to put them out. Put that piece of residue aside first and pour out the others. The next task was even more difficult, because it was not easy to let the silkworms reach the new leaves without hurting the silkworms. I gently pinched one and carefully pulled it out. , but they didn't move, so I had to ask my mother for advice. My mother said: "This is not easy. Just put the residue on the new leaves. When the silkworms want to eat the new leaves, they will crawl over by themselves. You can Can't you just take away the residue?" I did as I was told, and the silkworms did slowly crawl onto the new leaves, but the residue was still stuck to the tail, and it took me a lot of effort to get it off.
It seems that raising silkworms is not easy.
