Why are dried mealworms and calciworms good for birds?

• Both dried calciworms and mealworms are packed with protein, which is essential for muscle development and the overall health of the birds.

• These are rich in healthy fats, which supply birds with essential energy, especially during winter when they require additional calories to maintain body heat.

• Calciworms are particularly high in calcium, supporting bone health and aiding in egg production.

• They are also a good source of nutrition for young birds. Compared to seeds, they are tasty, easy to swallow, and nutrient-packed.  

Dried Calciworms Feeding Guide For Birds 

• The amount of dried calciworms to feed your bird depends on its species, size, and dietary needs. For most birds, a small amount, such as a teaspoon per day, is sufficient. 

• To introduce dried calciworms into your bird’s diet, mix them with their regular food, such as high-quality mixed wild bird seed mix.  Avoid replacing their regular food entirely with dried calciworms.

• You can serve calciworms in specialised worm feeders or trays or can throw a handful of calciworms on the ground for ground-feeding birds.

Additional Tip: Soak the calciworms in warm water for 30 minutes before you put them out for extra moisture and hydration for your birds.
