Large silkworms (Bombyx mori, Insect Length 35–50mm) are soft-bodied caterpillars and one of the most nutritious feeder insects available, suited to bearded dragons, adult chameleons, small monitors and large geckos. They move slowly and have no hard shell, so they are easy to catch and digest.
• Soft-bodied and easy to digest
• Slow-moving, ideal for less agile feeders
• Suited to bearded dragons, adult chameleons, small monitors and large geckos
• Excellent variety feeder within a balanced diet
Silkworms eat only mulberry, so they cannot be gut-loaded with standard insect diets; lightly dust with ProRep Calci Dust or NutriRep before feeding instead. Keep them in their tub at room temperature and use them promptly, as they continue to grow.
Pack Size / Insect Length: Approx. 8 per tub, Insect Length 35–50mm
