Grubbets Natural Dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae Bird Treats

I tried these for a change from Mealworms...throw them in my duck pool and watch then go crazy...playing, dunking for bugs. Nice protein treat. The chickens took a little longer to get used to them...like a few minutes.

I love this company and their product. I have a subscription through Grubbets and the price on Chewy is very good. I haven't bought this through Chewy but if you're on the fence about one grub or another, this one is a great deal! The grubs themselves are pretty firm and not smashed to smithereens like other, more brittle grubs. When feeding to small creatures like baby chicks they might need to be broken up a little first.

Added a covered bowl feeder to my deck’s array of bird feeders, specifically to keep our Bluebirds happy. In the tray, I’ve supplied mealworms and peanut butter bluebird nuggets. After learning nesting birds need more calcium than mealworms normally supply, I decided to add some dried soldier fly grubs to the food mix. The feeder attracts Mockingbirds, the Titmice and Chickadees pop in for a bug or two, a Downy Woodpecker comes by, Robins don’t land in the feeder but happily consume the bugs kicked out by other birds, and of course, Bluebirds. Of all these insect eaters, the only ones that seem to like the Grubbets, are my Robins (and the occasional rude squirrel).

Since I also have a 75 gal goldfish tank and feed foods with soldier fly larvae as an ingredient, I tossed a few into the tank to see what would happen, and was surprised how fast the fish figured out these were tasty treats! I had to break some of the Grubbets into pieces so the smaller fish could share in the bounty. I would suggest Chewy list these also on their pages with supplies for outdoor pond fish, because they’d be a giant hit with koi and pond sized goldfish! … more

The ducks love them but I found them unpleasant to smell and look at so will not purchase again. Prefer the mealworms

My chickens love these. Since we eat their eggs I didnt want any made in China bugs.

On our 3rd large bag of Grubbets, Chickens and youngest chicks love these. They are clean and fat. Bought the replace China sourced mealworms and very happy.

My hens go crazy for these black soldier fly larvae. They jump up and get all excited when I give them this treat.

My Feathered children loved there treats. I try to give my chickens special attention and treats. They are my pets and I love them. So it's only the best for them. They live meal worms and fly larve. And I trust Chewy to carrying only the best

My birds love these as treats. Definitely going to continue.

my chickens love these and I love they are from/made in the USA for purity
