Buff Clucks Black Soldier Fly Larvae for Chickens — 1 lb
Product description
Sustainably sourced dried larvae: This product contains one pound of dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL), harvested and processed by a family-owned operation in the United States. The larvae are produced with an emphasis on sustainable practices and arrive fully dried for stability and ease of storage.
What’s included and materials: You receive a 1 lb resealable pouch filled with whole dried BSFL. The larvae are animal-based protein rich in calcium and other essential nutrients commonly sought for poultry supplements. Packaging is designed to be resealable to preserve freshness between feedings.
How to use: Offer these larvae as a treat by sprinkling on the ground, scattering in the run, or mixing directly into your flock’s regular feed. They work well as a daily supplement to support feather quality, muscle condition and to boost protein intake. Suitable for chickens, ducks, birds and mixed backyard flocks.
Why poultry keepers choose BSFL: Compared with some traditional treats like mealworms, black soldier fly larvae deliver a strong nutrient profile that can support egg production and overall flock wellness. Many keepers report improved laying frequency and sturdier-shelled eggs when larvae are incorporated into routine feeding.

Switched from mealworms — happy hens
I sprinkle these dried larvae on the ground as a treat and mix them into feed for extra protein. I switched from mealworms for the higher protein and calcium. The resealable bag is handy and I saw few broken pieces. Hens are laying a bit more often and eggs look nicer.

Reliable nutrition for hens
I’ve purchased from this brand before. BSFL are an excellent protein boost: U.S. farmed, resealable bag, and my flock loves them. Downsides are smaller larvae than other sources and other options offer more product per pouch.

Good larvae but value is questionable
I mix these with birdseed to stock backyard feeders; bluebirds especially enjoy them. The grubs arrive mostly whole and are U.S.-grown, which I appreciate. That said, the package is smaller than some alternatives, so I dinged the rating for overall value.
