Silkworm Food for Sale
This is pre-made silkworm food, a ready-to-use chow you do not have to mix. It is built on mulberry leaf powder, the natural diet of silkworms, and it arrives fully sterilized and free of contaminants. That clean process helps your silkworms grow to size in good health. Use it to feed your worms, hold them longer, or grow them out.
Built on Mulberry Leaf
Mulberry leaf is the focus ingredient, and it brings a strong nutrient profile. It supplies antioxidants, vitamins, amino acids, and minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. So the food supports the quality that makes silkworms a strong feeder, and it is why this chow is the simple way to keep them well fed.
How to Use and Store It
Refrigerate the food on arrival, where it keeps for about a month. Offer it to your silkworms in their cup or habitat, and add more as they eat through it. Keep the worms themselves at room temperature, not in the fridge, even though the food is refrigerated.
Grow Them Out
With enough food, you can grow silkworms to the next stages. They pupate and then become flightless white moths, which makes a fun project and adds variety for larger reptiles. The pupae are denser in some nutrients, and the moths are safe for bearded-dragon-size animals and up.
