sigh..
SHe bought 100 with 25% overcount. Some may have died. It's hard to tell from her blurry pictures.. to tell you the truth, some were molting. Then she said most of them died later on.. what can I say?
I gave her free eggs, free shipping. I couldnt use padded envelop because that would suffocate. So I padded it myself and told her it was going to be a crude packaging but it was safe enough> the PO stamped it FRAGILE all over the top.
Then she send me the picture of them, 80% smashed.. it was beyond disbelief. You have to take a stapler to scrap them to cause them to crush like that.. I cant imagine a paper pile with rubber band on it scraping the eggs that way.
I am a decent person with very good upbringing.. if anything goes wrong with my orders I do the right thing.. but she keeps asking and asking for freebies and using a very direct tone of voice.. well, sadly it came to this..
now, if you want to buy from me, I'll be happy to guide you through the process of silkworm raising and breeding.. I will be very happy to give references..
thanks for looking
Amanda, like I said, these were all sold and shipped today. You see things and you can't wait to make them yours without delay. I don't like people taking advantage of nice people.. and I don't like being threatened either. I just don't think you are a very honest person and it's just not worth my while to continue to send you stuff and have you come back and say something is wrong when there is an extreme high suspicion of your intention and integrity. take care.

"Am extremely pleased. Have 8 cham's, so they will be living high for the next few days. One of my fussy male panthers just pounded three of the largest silks without hesitation.
Please keep me in the loop as far as your availability of silks and count on me to order more soon"- J of Iowa
"I have to say as soon as I had the silkworms moved to a new container and started watching and feeding them, I completely understood why you call them pets. And those Tiger Silks are beautiful! I'm still debating keeping one as a pet after I start feeding them off."..K of Tx
"They have been so active and eating, all of them, since 12 noon! Leaves were perfect!! No problems at all. Leaves are misted and in frig!!" - B of SC
"The silkworms got here just fine. They're now settled in their container and happily munching on fresh leaves. There are absolutely NO doa's! There's a picture attached, that I took seconds after opening the box. They weathered the trip very well." C of Wa
“ I think the salad container is a great idea. So far I got the 50 medium and 20 jumbo and not a single one was dead. They came very clean. Not overly silky or wet at all. They are somewhat spaced out just clinging to the left over stems. I can easily pick them up and put them in their new home.” – M of NY
