Diary of a Silkworm 5/17/11
Shh....we're all busy going through metamorphosis....so I can't talk long. We finally got good and fat and were about 3 inches long before we knew it was time. The considerate teacher put these egg cartons around our box which proved to be the perfect spot to start building a cocoon. I was worried about building my cocoon as I've never built one before! However, it all came naturally. I found my perfect spot and did a lot of stretching. Then I made my anchor lines which came from the spinnerets near my mouth. Then all of a sudden, my head just knew to make figure eight movements and I slowly begun to spin my cocoon! Wow! I'm amazed with myself! I guess we'll see you soon...!!!
