6LB Chubby Dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae

These amazing grubs are comparable to our Chubby dried mealworms but have the added benefit of a higher calcium value. In fact, they have 23 to 61 times more calcium than other commonly fed feeder insects and naturally feature a well-balanced calcium-phosphorus ratio. Research has shown that natural feed with balanced Ca:P ratios increases animal health and contributes to stronger bones and shiny feathers.

Calcium is especially important for laying birds such as chickens. Lack of calcium can result in poor laying, and soft shells and can cause behavior problems such as egg eating as the chicken tries to recoup the much-needed calcium. Feeding the Black Soldier Fly Larvae as a treat is an excellent way to increase these vital nutrients and we can assure you, they will soon become a favorite!

A whole variety of animals love the natural goodness in all our Chubby products including wild birds, reptiles, fish, hedgehogs, budgies, sugar gliders, and many more.

Although you can buy live Black Soldier Fly Larvae, dried ones are just as good with the added benefit of easy and long-lasting storage. Dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae are also a lot better for anyone that is squeamish!

Black Soldier Fly Larvae have many branded names such as: Calci Worms®, Phoenix Worms®, Soldier Grubs®, Nutriworms®, Tasty Grubs®, FlyGrubs®, Grubblies®, but these are the larvae of the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens), we'll just keep things simple and call them what they are :)
