About This Item

Details

  • These hornworms ship small and can grow to ~1–1.5 inches in the included food cup; keep them in a warm environment above 80°F to induce rapid growth in 3–5 days.
  • Hornworms are naturally high in calcium and moisture and feature a soft, chitin-free body that's easy to digest; they're perfect for hydrating bearded dragons, chameleons, leopard geckos, and crested geckos.
  • Perfect for picky eaters, their bright color, soft body, and gentle movement trigger a feeding response in even the most stubborn bearded dragon, monitor, tegu, or chameleon.
  • Pioneer Feeders' hornworms are bred in their Upper Peninsula Michigan facility and shipped Monday through Wednesday to avoid lengthy time spent in transit.
  • Some worm loss is expected during shipping—that’s why extra worms are added to each cup.

Showed up with about half dead and food on bottom of tray

This was honestly quite ridiculous, I waited 1-2 weeks roughly for these worms and there were maybe 5 out of like maybe 15 alive??????(not 50 WHATsoever) the food

This was honestly quite ridiculous, I waited 1-2 weeks roughly for these worms and there were maybe 5 out of like maybe 15 alive??????(not 50 WHATsoever) the food was also completely dismantled and broken up not hanging at the bottom of the cup(which should be flipped around for cleaning and development)which has crushed all but 1 MAYBE 2 I can’t tell if it’s alive. I’m not sure if this was chewy or the provider or the shipping company whoever it was but I will NOT be buying again. -10/10, 100% do NOT buy this.

Do not go off the picture because they look nothing like him

Over half of them show up dead and they are so itty-bitty. I just feel like I just wasted my money. Do yourself a favor save your money and get them from somewhere

They are extremely small and definitely no where near 50 as advertised.

We will have to wait for them to grow before we can feed them to Noodle. They aren’t even the size of rice. We had to look closely to even see them. I’m hoping they

We will have to wait for them to grow before we can feed them to Noodle. They aren’t even the size of rice. We had to look closely to even see them. I’m hoping they are fast growing.

Most were DOA

When they arrived pretty much all were dead or melted together. I was home on arrival and it’s not hot out so they didn’t sit out long or in the heat. I ended up

When they arrived pretty much all were dead or melted together. I was home on arrival and it’s not hot out so they didn’t sit out long or in the heat. I ended up only getting 8 that survived for growth and feeding.

They are not even big and most of them are dead

Well, then the picture they are a lot bigger, but the ones I received are very tiny and most of them are dead

Then they resent the order and now they are all itty-bitty babies.

Arrived damaged again.

He loves these worms, but for the second time, the container was damaged. I took everything out (ick) and salvaged 12 worms, but obviously the delivery drivers don't
