4Lbs Chubby Dried Silkworm Pupae

Chubby Dried Silkworm Pupae are a natural, protein-rich treat for koi and other fish, wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, and many reptiles. With high levels of protein, calcium, vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and essential fatty acids, these crunchy dried silkworm pupae provide a convenient way to add variety and nutritional value to an animal's regular diet.

The 4-pound size is packed in two resealable 2-pound bags, making it practical to store and use as needed. If an animal is hesitant about the texture or flavor, the pupae can be crushed into a powder to mix with normal food or soaked in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes to rehydrate them and make them easier to eat.

Key Features

  • High-Protein Dried Insect Treat: Provides a naturally protein-rich food option for a variety of animals, including koi, other fish, wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, and reptiles.
  • 52% Minimum Crude Protein: Offers a substantial source of protein based on the typical nutritional analysis provided for these silkworm pupae.
  • Rich in Calcium and Nutrients: Contains calcium, vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids, adding nutritional variety to regular feeding routines.
  • Versatile Feeding Options: Feed the dried pupae as a crunchy treat, crush them into a powder for mixing with regular food, or soak them in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes to rehydrate them.
  • Popular for Koi: Silkworm pupae are used as a food option for koi and are noted for their nutritional value and association with koi growth and color enhancement.
  • 4-Pound Package: Comes as two separate 2-pound resealable bags, making the bulk package easier to portion and store.

Flexible Feeding for Different Animals

Dried silkworm pupae can be useful when you want to offer a different texture or protein source rather than relying on a single type of food. For animals that are slow to accept them, grinding the pupae into a powder allows you to mix them into their usual food. Rehydrating the pupae in warm water for approximately 20–30 minutes is another option when a softer texture is preferred.

For koi and other fish keepers, silkworm pupae are a particularly useful feeding option because they provide protein along with calcium, vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and essential fatty acids. They can also be used as a treat for wild birds, hedgehogs, turtles, and many reptiles.
