"It's the newest cuddly pet from GrowTech Pharma! Thanks to genetic engineering, you can now raise your own giant mutant silkworm. They'll eat almost any food, but don't forget to give them water too! And if they get sick, you'll need to have some Antidotes on hand. Warning: Silkworms are living creatures. They will not live forever! Take good care of them and enjoy them while you can. Not available any other way!"

- At approximately 15 days of age, the Silkworm will reach an elderly stage and will have wrinkles.
- One can only feed a Silkworm in an area they have access to.
- Using a Spike Juice or an Experience Potion on a Silkworm will make it supercharged, which means that the next harvest will yield 10 Silk Threads.
