This message is from John Vesotzky <vesotzky at megaweb.co.za>, a Father from Krugersdotp, South Africa.

It is md-winter here. My daughter's silkworms are hatching and there are no mulberry leaves avaiable.
Two Questions:

1. Will keeping the eggs in a fridge retard hatching without     ruining the eggs?

2. Can one use alternatives such as beetroot leaves,     lettuce, cabbage, etc?

 Your help will be appreciated.

many thanks

John Vesotzky
