Your questions answered
What are calci worms, and how do they compare to dried mealworms in bird diets?
Calci worms, which are the larvae of the black soldier fly, and dried mealworms, the larvae of the darkling beetle, are both popular choices for feeding birds. Calci worms are particularly noted for their high calcium content, which is beneficial for birds' bone health and egg production. Dried mealworms, on the other hand, are rich in protein and are a great energy source. Both can be used to supplement a bird's diet, but the choice between them can depend on the specific nutritional needs of the bird.
What are mealworms?
A mealworm is the larval stage of the darkling beetle. These larvae are commonly used as a food source for various animals, including birds, reptiles, and fish. Mealworms are high in protein and fat, making them a nutritious and energy-dense option. They are often dried and processed into easy-to-handle products that are convenient for feeding pets and wildlife.
