What are Freeze-Dried Woodies used for?

Freeze-dried woodies are primarily used as a nutritious supplemental food or treat for a wide range of insectivorous and omnivorous pets. They are valued for being:

• High in Protein: Essential for growth, development, and overall health.

• Source of Fiber: Aids in digestion.

• Rich in Vitamins and Minerals: Contributes to a balanced diet.

Common pets that benefit from freeze-dried woodies include:

• Birds: Chickens, ducks, and various other poultry or insectivorous wild birds.

• Fish: Larger predatory fish in aquariums or ponds, such as large cichlids (e.g., Oscars), barramundi, or arowanas.

• Invertebrates: Spiders (tarantulas), scorpions, praying mantises.

• Small Mammals: Sugar gliders, hedgehogs, and other insect-eating mammals.

Benefits of using freeze-dried woodies compared to live insects:

• Convenience: No need to keep live insects, which require their own care (feeding, housing, preventing escapes).

• Backup Food: Excellent to have on hand when live insects are unavailable or run out.

• Reduced "Creepy-Crawly" Factor: For owners who are uncomfortable with live insects, the freeze-dried option is a great alternative.

• Shelf-Stable: Long shelf life without refrigeration.
