Mealworm beetles make awesome feeder insects, as well as cleanup crew for bioactive enclosures! These beetles are "retired breeders" (past their prime for laying eggs). Most are middle-aged adults with many weeks of life left! They are low in fat and high in fiber - perfect for any hedgie needing lower calorie treats.

Note on Calculated Shipping Rates
After wondering for quite some time why the system-calculated rates for orders including live bugs were higher than normal, we figured it out! Annoyingly, because live bugs are in a separate shipping profile, they are calculated as shipping out in a separate shipment than our other products. There is not a good work around for this currently, but we will adjust when we can!
For now, please note that if you are ordering bugs AND normal products (like kibble) the shipping cost will be incorrectly high (like $18 instead of $9). We will refund the difference when we ship all items together on one label!
