Full-size mealworms for reptiles, birds, fish, and other suitable insect eaters. These approximately 1-inch
Tenebrio molitor larvae offer active movement and are easy to portion from a ventilated holding container.
Before feeding
- Choose a quantity that fits your normal feeding rotation
- Offer appropriate feed and a safe moisture source during holding
- Use calcium dusting or gut-loading when your animal care plan calls for it
Mealworms have a firm outer covering, so prey size and feeding frequency should follow guidance for the species and life stage you keep.
