Mealworms

(Tenebrio molitor)


The feeder that is small, crunchy and dangerously addictive: mealworms from Crazy Critters.

Ideal for a wide range of animals, our mealworms fit neatly into a balanced diet — if by ❛balanced❜ you mean pets may ignore everything else until they’re gone.

Our mealworms are a firm favourite with pet owners and their enthusiastic animals but best fed in moderation because pets don’t do self-control.

STORAGE

 

We recommend that you: 

  • unpack your mealworms on arrival to reduce the risk of losses

  • store them in a fridge to slow their growth

  • remove them from the fridge every 1 to 2 weeks: allow them to eat for 24 hours then replace the bran in their container before returning them to the fridge

  • when feeding your pet: remove mealworms from the fridge 24-48 hours beforehand and gutload

 


COMMENTS

 

Mealworms are not considered a staple food because of their high-fat content, so we recommend you offer them as an occasional treat to pets in good health.

 

If your pet is injured, sick or breeding, adding mealworms to their diet can help with healthy weight gain.
