6 Lbs Chubby Dried Silkworm Pupae – High-Protein Poultry Treat

Chubby Dried Silkworm Pupae are a 100% natural, high-protein dried insect treat that can be offered to wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, koi and other fish, and many reptiles. With 52% minimum crude protein along with calcium, vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and essential fatty acids, they provide a nutrient-rich addition to an animal's regular diet.

This 6 lb package is a practical option when you want a larger supply of dried silkworm pupae on hand. If your animal is unfamiliar with silkworm pupae, they may take some time to accept the new taste. You can crush or grind the pupae into a powder to mix with normal food, or rehydrate them in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes to make them easier to eat.

Key Features

  • High-Protein Insect Treat: Contains a minimum of 52% crude protein, making dried silkworm pupae a nutrient-dense treat option for compatible birds, reptiles, fish, and other animals.
  • 100% Natural: A natural dried insect treat that can be incorporated into feeding routines without requiring preparation beyond serving, crushing, or rehydrating as needed.
  • Rich in Nutrients: Naturally provides calcium, vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and essential fatty acids as part of a varied diet.
  • Flexible Feeding Options: The pupae can be served as they are, ground into a powder, or rehydrated in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes.
  • Suitable for Multiple Animal Types: Can be fed to wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, koi and other fish, and many reptiles, giving keepers a versatile dried insect treat.
  • 6-Pound Supply: Includes 6 lbs of dried silkworm pupae, packed in three resealable 2 lb bags for convenient storage and access.

Flexible Feeding for Different Animals

Not every animal takes immediately to a new food. If your animal is hesitant about dried silkworm pupae, grinding them into a powder gives you another way to incorporate them into its normal food. Rehydrating the pupae in warm water for around 20–30 minutes can also soften them and make them easier to eat.

Silkworm pupae are also used as a supplemental food for koi and other fish. Manufacturer information notes that they have been associated with supporting koi growth and color enhancement, as well as slime coat protection. These claims are provided as manufacturer-supplied product information and should be considered alongside your animal's overall feeding routine.
