Large Live Calciworms

Fresh from the farm. Naturally nutritious. British reared.

Our premium Live Calciworms are farmed right here in Cambridgeshire, where we turn surplus food from British supermarket supply chains into naturally nutritious insect protein.

Unlike many live feeder insects that pass through long supply chains before they reach you, Little Grub Farm Live Calciworms are sent fresh from our own British farm. That means less time sitting in warehouses, better traceability, and a fresher feed for the animals you care for.

Live Calciworms are a brilliant natural feeder insect, especially for animals that respond to movement. Their wriggling action helps encourage natural pecking, hunting and foraging behaviours, making them ideal for chickens, wild birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, hedgehogs and other insect-loving animals.

They are also a great option if you want to feed live insects in more practical quantities. Instead of buying small tubs from the pet shop, you can buy direct from the farm in larger pack sizes, giving you fresher Calciworms and better value, especially for poultry keepers and anyone feeding regularly.
