it's Cordyceps sinensis - it's not yet produced artificially in that form.

well-watched anyway.  all sorts of Cordyceps species are sold
sold as C. sinensis and distinguishing the fakes can be difficult.
And it is said that some species can be poisonous for humans even.
Also lead, that is sometimes used as extra weight, might cause poisonings.

There is a pet store near in my city that sells silk worms for lizards. If I mix in some C. militaris mycelium with the mulberry paste you feed them do you think it work to inoculate them?

A cunning plan you got there! 
well, I haven't inoculated living creatures but I'll think that it should work.
Also just spraying them with mycelium water might work just as well.
An interesting experiment anyhow.

Well I'll give it a shot once I get a culture from Roger Fudd. I think they are something like $7 for 25 or so. I was thinking that I could just scrape mycelium off a petri then cut it up and mix it with the mulberry paste. Do the worms need to be at a certain temperature for the mycelium to grow most quickly?

if your lacking silkworms...
Quote:
2, the lack of silkworm pupa powder other medium can be used in place of the region. Such as egg white, yeast powder, milk powder, beef extract, soybean powder. 200-1200-15 Ling Ma group of nutrient solution could be Department (peeled, sliced) 200 Galouzeau about 1200 milliliters of water to boil for 15 minutes, filtering Java go. 20-15-2-,ph7-8 1000 Filtrate 20 grams sugar, milk powder 15 grams, 2 grams potassium dihydrogen phosphate, magnesium sulfate 1 g, ph value 7-8, fixed volume to 1000 milliliters
This was nabbed from Here, it had some butchered characters in it so the quote is a bit hacked up.
Of course, there's a wonderful amount of information care of Speeker in this thread. I read through them yesterday...pumped to try some of this out!

here is two more links that might be helpful if silkworms are used.
(BTW, the real (-ly messy) link bank is at my homepage.  )
28C is the temperature they use here:
