Live hornworms offer bearded dragons, geckos, chameleons and other reptiles a soft-bodied feeder that is rich in moisture and contains protein.
Each habitat contains 25+ hornworms. Also known as Manduca sexta or tomato hornworms, they arrive in a shipping container containing the diet needed to support their growth.
Their blue-green coloration and live movement can stimulate predatory interest while encouraging natural hunting and foraging behavior.
Key Features
- The moisture-rich, low-fat profile and calcium-to-phosphorus ratio make hornworms a useful addition to a reptile feeding routine.
- Their soft bodies lack the chitinous exoskeleton found on many feeder insects, making them digestible for younger or sensitive reptiles.
- A fast growth rate allows caretakers to offer smaller worms to juveniles or let them grow larger for adult reptiles.
- The included diet eliminates the need for additional food or water while the hornworms remain housed in their shipping container.
- Live hornworms provide feeding enrichment by encouraging reptiles to hunt and forage as they would naturally.
- Keep all hornworms in captivity. Never release live feeders outdoors because they could disrupt local ecosystems and harm native species.
