FAQ

• How are Grubblies and Omega Mix different?

  Grubblies are a healthy snack of ethically sourced, oven-dried black soldier fly grubs. Omega Mix is a variety of nutrient-dense ingredients that can be used as a daily feed topper or a snack.    

  Both provide positive nutrition & benefits. Grubblies pack that extra calcium and protein punch and are rich in lysine—essential nutrients that aid in feather growth which is great year-round, but especially beneficial for your girls during molting season and colder months. Omega Mix is bursting with antioxidants, trace minerals, and omegas—key nutrients for healthy, omega-rich eggs. 

• I already use Grubblies. How do I use Omega Mix? 

  Flock owners can use them differently or similarly; it just depends on your goals and feeding habits. You can use Omega Mix as a supplement to aid in omega-enriched eggs. You can also simply embrace the nutrient-dense variety in the mix and use it as a healthy snack. Whether you’re on a mission to bolster the nutrient value in your eggs or simply mix up your snack game, your chickens will be thrilled either way.   

  If you’re hoping to naturally aid in increasing omega content in eggs, we’d recommend following the feeding guide and mixing into feed.   

  If you’re using as a snack, we recommend alternating it with Grubblies. They’re a nice treat for hand feeding, scattering on the ground for free ranging, or a little something special to get them back to the coop, just as you probably use Grubblies!   

• What is the serving size for Grubblies?

  Serve up to ¼ cup of Grubblies Hometown Harvest or 2-3 tablespoons of World Harvest per adult bird as a daily snack. When molting, supplement your feed with a double serving of protein-packed Grubblies. For chicks, give 1-2 pinches daily - just like they would get in nature. Serve with chick grit and access to fresh water. Introduce new foods gradually and give your flock access to grit to aid digestion.
