Zilla Reptile Munchies Mealworms Lizard Food, 3.75-oz bag

My rats adore these nasty things. But this time the bag came crushed between bags of cat food. So now my rats get meal worm dust sprinkles in their salads. I’d submit a complaint, but that section doesn’t like working for me.

Most commercial hamster foods do not contain enough protein. These are a great addition to their diet to help meet protein needs. We give our dwarf hamster a few a day and she goes CRAZY over them! Not sure I would pay the full price (bought them on sale) when other brands are significantly less, but pleased with the packaging, quality, etc!

When I bought it l thought that It was a waste of money,until I saw that my pet was actually eating them! A couple days later I saw that taco/my pet,was actually eating them out of my mom’s tweezers we all were surprised.

I feed these mealworms to my lizard in my hedgehogs and they absolutely love them.

Great product! My geckos love it!!! Will definitely be buying this again!

I grow carnivorous plants and was looking for a larger sized bag of mealworms to feed them with. This one was inexpensive and exactly what I needed. Plants have been getting plenty of growth since I started them on these mealworms.

I thought I’d give these little gems a try, well what a waste that was. I should have known because I’ve seen similar issues with other foods with freeze dried worms for my beardie. These “worms” are literally just dry exoskeletons. There’s nothing to them. My leopard, “Ricky Lizardo,” likes to eat from the tongs and he will not eat these. If Ricky bites into one he will spit it out. There are worm crumbs everywhere. I’ve never seen a leopard react like this. Completely and total waste of money. Do not recommend. Get your hiney out and buy real live mealworms! That’s what I’m going to have to keep doing.

My hedgie at first ate a couple but then after that she was done with them. I tried multiple times and even mixed them in some scrambled eggs, boiled chicken & in her dry food & she just pushed them aside and ate around them. Every pet as their own likes & dislikes, and my hedgehog said she will pass.

My rats never tried mealworms (fresh or dried) before these, and they certainly enjoy them! They hold the dried worm between their paws and nibble their way to the end with great enthusiasm. The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the tendency to get quite a few pulverized worm bits and not as many larger, whole worms. I think that probably can’t be helped, though, since they are very fragile, but it does mean that by the end of the bag I’m pouring crispy mealworm flakes into a bowl for them rather than handing them individual worms. Another thing I didn’t expect is the smell (not awful, almost a spicy/savory/“roasted” odor) or the somewhat “greasy” feel. The ingredients say it’s just dehydrated My rats never tried mealworms (fresh or dried) before these, and they certainly enjoy them!

The ingredients say it’s just dehydrated mealworms so the slightly oily feeling must be from the worms themselves; otherwise I’d think there was a lightweight coating in the mix to prevent the worms from sticking together. Those things are not huge issues, and the product is definitely one I will purchase again for my ratties. It’s an inexpensive, natural treat that my pets really love, so it gets a definite “YUMMY!” rat-ing from them! … more
