Highlighted Reviews
"My ducks love these bugs and I love products by Exotic Nutrition. Have been using them for years for my ducks, frog and hedgehog."
"Put feed block into same box with no padding and the feed block Completely obliterated the bag with fly larvae. It leaked out of box and only maybe 1/4 of the bag was left but it was powder from being smashed."
Bottom Line
Overall, it is an excellent choice for chickens, but be aware of potential packaging issues and order carefully. For those who receive a good quality block in a good packaging , it will be great peace of mind. This is currently the only way to feed more than 1 worm a day, though.
