Butterworms

The Butterworm, a.k.a. Tebo Worm, is the larval stage of the Chilean Moth (Chilecomadia moorei). The worms are found in their natural habitat; the Tebo trees (Trevoa trinervis) in Chile, and are picked by hand with minimal impact to the ecological balance of the area.

Butterworms are soft-bodied (easily digestable) and a very nutritious food item for reptiles, amphibians, fish and birds.

Our worms are guaranteed fresh and guaranteed live on delivery. They will stay plump and alive in your refrigerator for about 3-4 months without food or water. Just be sure to replace their substrate if it should become moist.

If you already use silkworms or hornworms you will definitely want to consider adding butterworms to your feeder options.

Hassle-free Storage:

No worm food to mess with, no tricky handling, no bad odors. Simply store the worms in the refrigerator (42-45 Fahrenheit). At these temperatures the worm enters a state of hibernation and won’t require any food or water for approx. 3-4 months.
