ProBugs Eco Fresh Silkworm 5pcs

ProBugs Eco Fresh Silkworms are a convenient, shelf-stable feeder option for reptile keepers who want the nutritional benefits of live silkworms without the hassle of maintaining a colony. Each pack contains 15 individually vacuum-sealed pouches, with 5 silkworms per pouch — a practical serving size that reduces waste and keeps things simple at feeding time.

Nutritional Profile

Silkworms (Bombyx mori) are well regarded as a feeder insect for good reason. They are low in fat and high in protein, with a guaranteed analysis of 12.0% protein (min), 1.0% fat (min), 3.5% fibre (max), 87.0% moisture (max), 0.1% phosphorus (min), and 0.1% calcium (min). The high moisture content means they also contribute to hydration alongside nutrition. Ingredients are straightforward: silkworms and water, with no preservatives.

Freshness and Storage

Each pouch is vacuum sealed to lock in moisture and condition, giving an 18-month shelf life at room temperature when unopened. Once a pouch has been opened, it will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator — making it easy to feed across multiple sessions without any spoilage.

Suitable Species

These silkworms are suitable for a wide range of insectivorous and omnivorous animals kept in vivarium or terrarium setups. Recommended species include:

• Geckos
• Lizards
• Snakes
• Salamanders
• Koi and goldfish
• Parrots
• Sugar gliders

Why Eco Fresh?

The silkworms are organically farmed and raised naturally, without the use of preservatives or artificial additives. The vacuum-sealing process means nutritional quality is preserved to a standard comparable to live feeders — a genuine alternative for keepers who cannot always source or maintain live insects.

With 15 ready-to-use pouches per pack, ProBugs Eco Fresh Silkworms offer a practical, nutritionally sound feeding solution that suits both regular and occasional use across a range of exotic pets.
