Superworms are the larvae of the Zophobas morio darkling beetle. They're similar to mealworms, but larger and fattier, making them good as an occasional feeder or treat for medium-sized species of reptile, amphibian, and arachnid. Each medium superworm is approximately 1 1/2" long.
Our pre-cupped option is great for hobbyists that want a convenient alternative to "boxed" or "bagged" feeders, and pet stores or resellers wanting a professional pre-packaged solution.
Dust with calcium powder before feeding.
