== Source ==
This building becomes available when you learn the [[Silkworm Farming]] skill. It should be noted that unlike many other buildings, the [[Silkworm Farming]] skill is required to use it.

== Cost ==
* 200 [[requires::Treated Boards|Nontoxic Boards]]
* 25 [[requires::Papyrus Paper]]
* 50 [[requires::Iron]]
* 50 [[requires::Sheet Glass]]
* 10 [[requires::Copper Sheeting]]
* 1 [[requires::Thermometer]]
* 20 turquoise [[requires::Paint]]
* 20 pale turquoise [[requires::Paint]]

Built in a [[Compound]]. Uses 11x11 cells.

== Use ==
Silkworms generate [[produces::Raw Silk]] when fed the proper [[requires::Thistle]]s, grown in a [[Thistle Garden]]. If they are not fed, they will still survive.

The Silkworms go in a 4-day cycle, starting from when you build the farm:
* 12 hours waiting for the next generation to be laid.
* 3 days eggs waiting to hatch. During this period the farm will display the current requirements.
* 12 hours either growing and eating (if fed), or simply surviving.

The type of thistle required will change after a cycle where the silkworms have been fed at least one thistle. If they are not fed, no silk will be produced and the thistle requirements will not change.

== Output ==
The amount of Raw Silk returned after the silkworms are fed is based on the amount of Thistle they were given (in addition to a small random factor), but it is not a simple linear relationship.

* For small amounts of Thistle, the Raw Silk returned will follow an approximately 1:1 ratio.
* As more Thistle is added, the ratio will at first increase, peaking around 500-600 Thistle at about 1.5:1.
* After the peak, the ratio will begin to decrease, returning to 1:1 at around 1000 Thistle.
* After 1000 Thistle, the ratio continues to decline sharply, reducing the value of adding additional Thistle.
* 1000 Thistle produces 1200-1300 Raw Silk.
* Confirmed test that 4.6k thistles only gave back 1.4k of silk, a ratio of approx 1:0.3
