You can’t expect bugs in a can to be alive. These are well preserved silkworm pupas and are still a very nutritious option. I feed them to my beardie. After opening you refrigerate them for a few days. Glad to have these around!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Quality product, if a bit overpriced.

Would’ve given 5 stars if the price weren’t so high, though this seems to be the norm for canned insects. These silk worm pupae are NOT dried or still alive. They are canned, moist and soft. They smell like canned meat, so not necessarily pleasant. If your animal won’t eat something that’s not moving or off a pair of tongs then this product is not for you. These have been a huge hit with my skink, turtles, fish, crawfish and even as an occasional mix-in for my ferrets. I’ve also seen them work with bearded dragons, monitor lizards, tegus, box turtles, etc.

No, I do not recommend this product.
