Food Acceptance

Protein

Housefly (Musca domestica) No ratings yet

Common feeder fly, usually bred in flightless ("curly-wing") strains for safe use in formicaria. Good all-round protein source; larvae (maggots) can be offered too.

Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) No ratings yet

Larval stage of the mealworm beetle, widely available and easy to store. A good staple protein source for larger ant species; the tough exoskeleton can be harder for smaller species to open, so crushing or cutting is recommended for them. Pupae and adult beetles can also be offered.
