Nutritional advice

Please note that due to their low chitin content, silkworms lack a shell and will feel soft after freezing and thawing. They also tend to dry out faster, and any discoloration that occurs after a few hours isn't a sign of spoilage but rather pigment oxidation, which is harmless.

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.
