These feeder insects can grow up to 3 inches and length, which make them great for many different reptiles and amphibians.

Another great feature about feeding your pet(s) silkworms is the basic nutritional benefits. Silkworms are a great source of calcium, proteins, iron, magnesium, sodium, and vitamins B1, B2, and B3. When compared to other popular feeders, such as crickets, silkworms have less fat and phosphorus and more calcium and protein.

If you're not a fan of the prices, as yes these feeders can be priced higher than crickets and mealworms, then you may want to consider silkworms as an occassional treat. You don't always have to feed the same ole insects to your pets. Remember that variety is the key to health.

Other great benefits to feeding silkworms to your pets, include:

• No additional stink.
• Soft bodied for easier digestion.
• Cannot move quickly, jump, fly, or get away from your pet.
• Do not make noises.
• Longer lifespan than other feeder insects.
