The price is absolutely amazing and the way they ship makes complete sense, there inside of a little bag with paper folded it's a little hard to get them but totally worth it I just saved my containers from previous big purchases!!!! I was paying $6.99 at a local pet shop for 100! De can't beat this prooc and the quality.
Inconvenient packaging decent product
I also found it weird and a bit annoying to have these worms delivered in paper with no kind of food. How is something supposed to be gut loaded when it took two
I also found it weird and a bit annoying to have these worms delivered in paper with no kind of food. How is something supposed to be gut loaded when it took two weeks to ship to me and it’s not even packed with anything edible? I have found probably 10 dead mealworms over the past couple days since getting my first shipment, that’s a few more dead than I get buying them at the local bird store, but these are still cheaper. I’m curious if these have been treated with HGH and are sterile or are these able to breed?
I was surprised
I ordered these and im surprised with them. I was skeptical with all the other reviews. But they came in good condition. It is below freezing right now in Colorado,
I ordered these and im surprised with them. I was skeptical with all the other reviews. But they came in good condition. It is below freezing right now in Colorado, and they were left on my doorstep. I was a little scared but I havent found a single dead one yet.
The packaging
These are for the bluebirds. It was very difficult to remove them from the bag. Luckily I knew what to put hem in and how to keep them. No instructions.

Packaging
I do appreciate the convenience. However, I was not expecting the mealworms to come packaged this way. I was expecting them do be in a plastic container. Not loose
I do appreciate the convenience. However, I was not expecting the mealworms to come packaged this way. I was expecting them do be in a plastic container. Not loose in a box with only packing paper.
Should of waited
I should have waited until warmer weather as most of them were dead when they got here but my bearded dragons didn't care they snacked on them anyway
