2 lb Chubby Dried Silkworm Pupae – High-Protein Animal Treat

Chubby Dried Silkworm Pupae are a natural, high-protein treat for wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, koi and other fish, and many reptiles. This 2 lb bag provides a convenient way to add a protein-rich food source to your animals' regular diet, with naturally occurring calcium, vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and essential fatty acids.

If your animal is unfamiliar with silkworm pupae, introducing them gradually may help. They can be offered whole as a crunchy treat, crushed or ground into a powder to mix with regular food, or rehydrated in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes to make them softer and easier to eat.

Key Features

  • High-Protein Nutrition: Contains a minimum of 52% crude protein, making these dried silkworm pupae a protein-rich addition to suitable animal diets.
  • Naturally Nutrient-Rich: Provides calcium, vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and essential fatty acids as part of a natural animal treat.
  • Multiple Feeding Options: Feed whole for a crunchy treat, or crush and grind the pupae into a powder that can be added to regular food.
  • Easy to Rehydrate: Soaking in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes softens the pupae and can make them easier for some animals to eat.
  • Suitable for Multiple Species: Can be fed to wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, koi and other fish, and many reptiles.
  • 2 lb Resealable Bag: The clear resealable packaging helps keep the product conveniently stored between feedings.

Flexible Feeding for Different Animals

Dried silkworm pupae can be used in several ways depending on the animal and how readily it accepts a new food. Whole pupae provide a crunchy treat, while grinding them into a powder gives you a simple way to incorporate them into an animal's normal food. For animals that prefer softer foods, soaking the pupae in warm water for around 20–30 minutes provides another feeding option.

Silkworm pupae are also used as a nutritional food for koi and other fish. The manufacturer notes that they have been associated with supporting koi growth and colour enhancement, as well as slime coat protection.
