What do these guys offer nutrition wise?

Hornworms are basically water balloons (a lot of water content). They are not high in fat, but not too high in protein. Silkworms on the other hand are very high in protein compared to other feeders (roaches and others)...mainly because of the silk that they produce..silk is a protein. My frogs love both and have never refused a wriggling caterpillar.

All hornworm eggs sold out, Silkworm eggs are all still available.


I do not sell food for these caterpillars - I make my own for both and although both hornworm chow and silkworm chow are made from top ingredients, I do not want to get into making it in bulk right now. Thank you for asking about it though.

What do they eat? Is there any info on how to grow them out?
