I have reared several hundred Bombyx mori larvae from ova supplied by Sericulum as well as overseeing their rearing in classrooms. The larvae were hearty and healthy. Further, the manner in which the ova were packaged and shipped, clearly indicated Roger's concern for their safe arrival. Sad but true, there are those who share Roger's profession who value financial gain over ethical breeding and business practices. I am so glad to say that Roger Bernhardt and Sericulum value ethics above all.
Reliability is a valued asset when planning experiments.
I was very happy to find you as a source for eggs because of the quality of your product and because the orders always arrive on time and in perfect condition. Even parents who don't make it to meetings came to school to see the silkworms spin their cocoons. As a child psychologist, I know how important it is to incorporate nature studies into a young person's life. Sericulum is an exceptional vehicle to teach important concepts of the natural world and I highly recommend your products. Just wanted to say thank you for a great product.
