Live Food Silk Worms (Small)

Silkworms | Unique Nutritional and Health Benefits 


Re: Silkworms: What are the pros and cons?


The silkworm is easily the best possible insect to feed your reptiles.  It contains more Protein than any other.  It is also high in Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, and B Vitamins.  It is high in moisture to keep your reptile properly hydrated.  Most importantly, Silkworms produce the natural enzyme Serrapeptase.  Serrapeptase is a natural Anti-Inflammatory, and can help to strengthen bones by making calcium absorption more efficient.  It also cleanses the blood and the liver, which could help to combat Fatty Liver Disease and Adenovirus.

SILKWORMS have the lowest fat and phosphorous content with the highest protein content, out of the five most popular live feeders (Silkworms, Mealworms, Waxworms, Butterworms and Crickets).

Silkworms contain an enzyme called Serrapeptase which has many beneficial properties:  it is an excellent anti-inflammatory and pain reliever, it aids calcium absorption, and it also fights arterial plaque!! (cleanses the blood and the liver, which could help combat Fatty Liver Disease and Adenovirus).

Two or Three Silkworms twice a week will give your Exotic Pet a very nutritious and balanced meal.

You just can't beat the low-fat content & nutritional value of a silk worm.

Silkworm live feeders: The Worm Lady silkworms are grown in our facility from eggs, using the only correct nutritional diet, for optimal nutritional values and healthiest live feeder insects, or brought in from a reputable supplier when we are not able to keep up to demand.  Silkworms actually provide the best all around nutritional value for your exotics.

 You just can't beat the low-fat content & nutritional value of the silk worm insects.  Once thought to be delicate and hard to care for, silkworms are actually quite hardy needing only a dry environment and a small amount of silkie food daily (mulberry leaf chow - which can be kept in the fridge for up to a month).

Silkworms are a high source of Calcium, Protein, Iron, Magnesium, Sodium, and Vitamins B1, B2, and B3.

Because of their high calcium content, silkworms are especially great  for gravid females since they help ensure strong and healthy eggs/offspring. Finally, since silkworms are soft bodied live feeders, there is no worry of impaction in small or young exotics.  Silkworms only eat mulberry leaf chow, or fresh mulberry leaves when, and if, available.

Considering their excellent nutritional value, high protein, iron and magnesium levels, low fat content, and ease of keeping, silkworms are now building a strong demand and should be a part of every exotic’s regular diet of live feeder insects for a balanced diet.
