Pinkies are the most used frozen insects. If we let birds choose, they’ll often prefer this insect. It’s a maggot with a soft skin and rather tasty. Pinkies are the larvae of the Green bottle fly. The name pinkies is derived from the English word “pink” because of their pink colour when they clean themselves before they pupate. Pinkies from our farms are bred on fresh offal from the food industry. These farms are under strict supervision of government agencies of EU food safety authority.
Nutritional advice
Topinsect insects should always be defrosted before being offered to animals. An insect which is still frozen could cause stomach or intestinal cramps. Never offer an animal more defrosted insects than it can eat. If too many insects are offered, they’ll not be eaten and their quality will decrease rapidly.
