Now my third time ordering these, all went swiftly and smoothly once again... and our local wee birds certainly consume them rapido. 🐦⬛😋
Good quality clean sample delivered promptly.
The calci worms are as popular with the starling as the mealworms that I usually feed them. I think that they are better value so I will buy them again.
The birds really love them (especially the starlings)!
Perfect product. Super fast delivery. Will order again.
The image they use of this item is misleading. The image is of dried mealworms and the name of the product is dried calciworms. I emailed them to explain this and they argued with me. Terrible customer service.
