SKU HRN-SM-6

Live Manduca sexta hornworms. Soft-bodied, moisture-rich feeders known for rapid growth and easy feeding.

Why keepers use them

Very soft-bodied with almost no chitin, and mostly moisture. The go-to for a dehydrated or recovering reptile, a picky eater, or an animal that needs tempting back onto food. High in calcium and low in fat.

Feed as a treat rather than a staple — the moisture content that makes them useful also makes them a poor everyday diet. Most keepers offer them once or twice a week.

They will get bigger

Hornworms grow quickly, and the size you receive can change substantially within days of arrival. Choose with that growth in mind rather than ordering for the size you need today.

See the Hornworm Care & Storage guide for how to manage them after delivery, and the Feeder Size Guide for sizing.
