Description
Superworms, also known as zophobas or king worms, are one of the largest and most popular feeder insects available. These robust larvae are an excellent high-value food source for larger reptiles, amphibians, fish, birds, and small mammals that prefer bigger prey items.
Key Benefits:
- High Protein & Fat Content: Approximately 45–50% protein and 35–40% fat, providing excellent energy and growth support for larger species, breeding animals, and animals recovering from illness.
- Large Size: Typically 1.5″–2″ long (and sometimes larger), making them ideal for big lizards (adult bearded dragons, tegus, monitors), large amphibians (Pacman frogs, large toads), tarantulas, scorpions, and even small mammals.
- Thick Exoskeleton: Their tougher outer shell adds enrichment and stimulates natural chewing and hunting behaviors, while still being digestible for most species.
- Active & Attractive: Superworms move vigorously, wiggling and burrowing, which entices even picky eaters to hunt and feed.
- Easy to Store: Can be kept in the refrigerator for several weeks, slowing their development and keeping them fresh and alive. No special setup needed.
- Low Odor & Cleanup: Minimal smell and mess compared to many other large feeders.
Superworms are a favorite for adult bearded dragons, leopard geckos, blue-tongued skinks, monitor lizards, large chameleons, turtles, large fish, and more. For optimal nutrition, gut-load with a high-quality superworm chow or fresh veggies, and lightly dust with calcium and multivitamin supplements before feeding.
