Most of the worms are dead!

I opened the container thought maybe they were just shocked from transport because, things can happen. I waited until the next day to see if they improved and started

I opened the container thought maybe they were just shocked from transport because, things can happen. I waited until the next day to see if they improved and started moving again. They didn’t. Worst shipment of worms I have ever received, I usually order through chewy once I see I’m running out to make things easier. But this shipment was horrible, I’ve never seen anything like this before. The way they are handled or shipped really needs to be addressed, it’s insane that a whole shipment arrived dead. Something clearly went wrong.

These people do not know what bubble wrap is like honestly I ordered 100 mealworms and what I got was a box filled with crickets and then a small container filled with the mealworms at the bottom they could have used bubble wrap but instead they had to use live crickets i did not ask for crickets and they almost escaped into my house This is the most horrible Service I've ever seen

They’re alive!!! Great purchase

Thrilled to find these on my beloved Chewy. I’ve been buying meal and wax worms from our local to keep “my” bluebirds happy since Spring. EVERY single mealworm

Thrilled to find these on my beloved Chewy. I’ve been buying meal and wax worms from our local to keep “my” bluebirds happy since Spring. EVERY single mealworm arrived alive and kicking! It’s a far bigger amount than I’ve ever purchased before, so I did need to research how to keep them nourished and thriving without turning into beetles. If you don’t know, how, I would recommend doing so before your order arrives.

Came with free crickets that we did not ask for

The egg crates the mealworms came packaged with had tiny crickets all over them. The worms were safe in a separate plastic container, so I assume this was a mistake

The egg crates the mealworms came packaged with had tiny crickets all over them. The worms were safe in a separate plastic container, so I assume this was a mistake in packaging. I buy worms for a reason; we have a strictly no-cricket household, so that was a less than fun surprise.

They came well packaged and alive (minus a few).

These are my sugar gliders favorite treats. All five of them agree, as some will eat most treats and some are picky. They chirp and sometimes purr while eating

Live Large Mealworms

Large live mealworms 250 CT. Id say that the mealworms are small to medium. They are definitely not large.
