The larvae contain 40% protein and 4% calcium, and the pack holds 160 ounces in total. Each order is one pack, and the larvae arrive as whole granules that have been hand-inspected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe larvae can be fed straight from the pack\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dried black soldier fly larvae are ready to use as they come, with no preparation needed. The manufacturer lists the pack as intended for training and foraging, so a handful can be offered by hand as a reward or scattered for birds to peck at. The item form is granule, and the larvae are dried whole rather than ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhich animals can eat these black soldier fly larvae?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck that the animal you plan to feed is on the stated list before ordering. The manufacturer names chickens, wild birds, ducks, hamsters and reptiles as suitable. If your animal is not one of these, the pack is not intended for it. The pack is a single 10 lb unit, so it suits someone with several birds or a flock rather than a single small pet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe protein, calcium and inspection behind each pack\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach larva carries 40% protein and 4% calcium, and the whole larvae are dried after the insects have been raised on a diet of wheat, carrots and squash.
