Our black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are a nutrient rich protein and calcium treat staple for your customer's pets. Obie's live BSFL (Hermetia illuciens) contain >5500 ppm calcium, >50% protein (dry weight) and a Calcium to Phosphorus (Ca:P) 1.25:1 ratio which is near ideal for insectivores. BSFL also contain all the essential nutrients insectivores need. Obie’s BSFL are easy to store, they don’t chirp, and don’t require calcium dusting or gut loading. Simply have your customers give the larvae a quick rinse and feed them directly to their pets when they take them home, then store them between 10-12 ºC. Obie’s medium BSFL are 10-15 mm in length and weigh between 7-12mg. Obie's medium BSFL are the perfect staple feed for newts, medium frogs and toads, adolescent lizards, small chameleons, medium geckos, axolotls, and young hedgehogs. Obie’s BSFL are locally raised in Halifax, Nova Scotia. We don’t import expensive feedstock for our insects, we use pre-consumer organics from sources like local breweries, to feed and grow our black soldier fly larvae. The result is a protein that isn’t just sustainable, it’s also a nutritious staple for your customer's pets. Obie's medium BSFL are available in the following pre-packaged quantities: 100, 250, 500, 1000
