Description
Bring bluebirds to the feeder and send your hens into a happy scramble with Hungrybird Dried Mealworms. Each 17.6 oz bag is nothing but whole dried mealworms, a natural insect treat packed with 50% crude protein and 25% fat that wild birds and backyard poultry crave. Mealworms attract the widest variety of bird species, including insect-eaters like bluebirds, wrens and chickadees that pass over seed, and give laying hens, molting birds and growing chicks concentrated energy year-round. Because every worm gets eaten, there are no hulls or spilled seed to clean up under the feeder or around the coop.
Key Features
- Single ingredient: 100% dried mealworms with no fillers, grains, colors or preservatives.
- High protein: 50% crude protein and 25% crude fat support feather growth, egg production and energy through winter cold and summer molt.
- Attracts more species: Draws insect-eating songbirds that ignore seed feeders, plus the usual cardinals, jays and finches.
- No waste: Lightweight, shell-free worms disappear completely, so there is no mess below the feeder.
- Works in most feeders: Serve in tray, platform, dish, hopper or dedicated mealworm feeders, or scatter on the ground for chickens and ducks.
- Resealable bag: A zip-top stand-up pouch keeps worms dry and crisp between feedings.
How to Use
For wild birds, put a small handful in a tray or dish feeder each morning, or mix worms into seed or suet. Soak dried mealworms in warm water for a few minutes to rehydrate them for nesting parents feeding chicks. For poultry, toss a handful into the run as a treat or training reward, use them to coax hens back into the coop at dusk, or offer extra during molt. Feed as a supplement to a complete diet and keep the bag sealed in a cool, dry place. Not for human consumption.
