Koishimaru Silkworms

Those little guys are now this big and almost ready to make cocoons. Momo and Geiger were being guardpuppers this afternoon.

There is still a big bag of cocoons unreeled in the fridge. Their aunt's and uncle's hard work being reeled. Destiny awaits you friends.



The tea harvest is over and most of the tea hedges have been trimmed back for next year's harvest. One reason for the holes in the blog.
