Why we chose it

Calcium is the one thing plain mealworms don't really add, and it matters most exactly when garden birds are nesting and laying. It's a straightforward way to widen what's already being put out without changing the whole feeding routine.

— Matt, founder

Full description

A wild bird deciding whether to land on a feeder is weighing risk against reward in about a second, and what tips that decision is usually whatever is already sitting there. A reliable, high-value feed is what keeps a garden on a bird's regular route.

Johnston & Jeff's dried calciworms are a complementary feedstuff for wild birds, sold in a 100G pack and can be fed ad lib. The maker's own typical analysis quotes 40% protein, 35% fat and 3% calcium, and the calcium content is specifically aimed at helping with egg production and skeletal growth in the birds that eat them.
