Live Superworms

Zophobas Morio

Superworms are the larvae of a darkling beetle, Zophobas morio. Not to be confused with giant mealworms, which are mealworms sprayed with a juvenile hormone, superworms are a great source of calcium, fat and fiber.

Small (Approx. 3/4″ – 1″) Medium (Approx. 1.5″) Large (Approx. 1.5″ – 2″)

Caring For Feeder Insects

Gut-loading

Superworms are an abundant food source due to their high protein, calcium, and hydration. Superworms are used as feeder insects for a lot of popular pets, such as bearded dragons, chickens, and other reptiles.

Temperature

Superworms are relatively easy to keep, just keep them at room temperature. Place slices of potato on the top for water.

As said before, Do NOT refrigerate the superworms. Unlike other feeder insects, refrigerating superworms does not cause a hibernation.

Substrates

A one thousand count bulk of superworms can be kept in a large plastic container, with air holes in the top. You should cover the superworms with a thick layer of wheat middling, oatmeal, or Fluker’s mealworm bedding to provide bedding and a food source.

Feeding Your Pet

Feeder insects should be no larger than the space between your pet’s eyes.

Cricket – (Acheta domesticus)

A Cricket (Acheta domesticus) is an insect with distant relations to the grasshopper, and are found almost all over the world! They can range in size, but a Fluker cricket can get up to an inch in length. Pick the size that best fits your pet’s needs!

Mealworms – (Tenebrio Molitor)

Mealworms (Tenebrio molitor) are the larvae of mealworm beetles and are an abundant food source for many animals. Birds, spiders, reptiles, even other insects prey on mealworms to find a high protein and fat source in the wild, and it is much the same in captivity!

Live Hornworms – (Manduca sexta)

Hornworms are an excellent feeder treat for bearded dragons, leopard geckos, chameleons, and various other reptiles and pets. Their bright green color stimulates picky eaters, and they are extremely low maintenance.

Soldier Fly Larvae – (Hermetia illucens)

Soldier Worms, the live larvae of the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens), are a naturally nutritious, protein-packed, calcium-rich treat for your pet. Their balanced Calcium to Phosphorus ratio is ideal for reptiles (without the need for dusting), and can help prevent Metabolic Bone Disease.
