Match the worm to your pet

Which silkworm size should I choose?

Age is only a starting point. Your pet’s actual head and mouth size matter more, so measure the individual and choose smaller if you are between sizes.

The safer starting rule As a cautious starting point, choose a silkworm shorter than your pet’s head width. The examples below are not a guarantee for every animal. Measure with the feeder-size finder
