      @ArtisChronicles 3 роки тому +17

      I wouldn't necessarily call it domestication, more along the lines of selective breeding. They managed to cultivate genes that make them unable to fly and thus silk production became much more efficient.

      @@ArtisChronicles Considering that they've lost the ability to fly, lost the fear of humans(and predators in general), and need human intervention to even reproduce; it's pretty safe to say that they're domesticated.

      Just like the butterfly, if it doesn’t struggle to escape the cocoon, it’s wings aren’t strengthened and it cannot fly.
      I wonder who first thought, “let me strip this casing off a worm and make thread.”

    Just so people know, the silk worm is so domesticated that after it hatches from the cocoon, it doesnt have a mouth so it cant feed itself and their wings are incapable of flying. They die about 3 days after mating and laying eggs

      Uh, are you sure about that? Because that’s not at all uncommon amongst similar insects without human dependence. (Not feeding, that is)

    • @calliarcale
      @calliarcale 3 роки тому +53

      Domestication is responsible for their fearless nature and sedentary disposition, but in fact a lot of moths and other insects do not eat as adults. (Some species do eat as adults, so it's not a universal rule.) For instance, the insect with the biggest wingspan, the atlas moth, is entirely wild yet has no mouth and lives only from a few days after emerging from the cocoon. They have to do all of their eating as caterpillars; as adults, they exist only to breed. This is also true of many other insects, such as mayflies.

    in biology we are learning about carbon molecules and my textbook said "One polymer you may have heard of before is silk. Silk fibers, made by spiders and some worms, are very strong and durable. Now, researchers are trying to produce even stronger silk by feeding silkworms carbon-based materials such as carbon nanotubes. Scientists are hoping to use the enhanced silk for medical implants and wearable electronics. With a partner, research carbon-enhanced silk, and discuss the ways this material might influence human society." so i was really curious to see the process behind this and i never knew silk came from cute worms until now lol

    • @lilaclizard4504
      @lilaclizard4504 2 роки тому

      ​@@hesaaah3805 easiest option is to buy a pack that contains the eggs & "silk worm chow" food, with directions as to how to make that up & you just feed them on that each day.
      The natural way is to feed them on mulberry leaves, but if you don't have access to a mulberry tree, then the silk worm chow works great too :)
      I put them in take away food containers, with cut to size gutter leaf guard at the bottom that their poop drops though & then I just lift them up on the gutter thing each day & dump the poop into my garden & I move them onto a new piece of that or into a new food container if their old one looks yuck & give the old one a wash, ready to reuse as soon as it's dry. When they're ready to cocoon, I either put them into toiletpaper tubes, or cut opening holes in hte bottom of them & let the worms enter them themselves to do their cocoons in & then I let some hatch & lay eggs & the rest I put into the fridge after a few days in the cocoons, which puts them to sleep, then I put them into the freezer & then sun to dry them out for storage till I have enough to spin the silk. You can just put them straight into the sun or oven, but I don't know if there's potential for them to feel pain or not, so I'd rather do it in a way that guarantees no pain or suffering. Eggs I keep in the fridge until next spring/summer & then repeat the process

    Scientifically speaking: after the silkworm makes cocoon it's body liquifies then reforms into a moth. So if it's brain and nerves have liquified or are not able to function during that transition then how do they feel pain? The answer is they don't.

    Video shows yellow cocoons while talking about males, does that mean the yellow ones are males or is it just a coincidence? I currently have my first ever batch of silk worms in the process of cocooning & I have some white/light yellow & some deep yellow cocoons & I have no idea which are males or females, hoping the colour might be the give away?

      @@littleidiotka I still haven't actually got that far :( I've got a pile of coccoons saved, but still not enough to really do anything useful with, so I'm waiting till I have more before doing something with them. I only have a tiny mulberry shrub for food :(
      My understanding though, is to produce the thread, you put them back into the boiling water, fish out the end of the silk for about 10=20 cocoons & then wind them together to form a thread thick enough to be usable. I haven't tried it yet though & am still a bit confused as to what's actually involved in the winding part, if it needs twisting together or what. If you do it, let me know how it goes :))
      & btw the yellow/white meant nothing in relation to male/female, larger were female while smaller were male though

      Not the silkworm, no. The pupae though, yes. And the silkmoths die after a few days as they are incapable of eating after they turn into moths (like a lot of moths).

    People commenting "I will never buy silk". Well, in the first place you never did! Silks are expensive, unlike these commercially avilable faux silks, pure silk are rare to find. Besides, buying fast fashion in unlimited amount you are doing more harm to the mother nature and artisans which you claim to care so much.
