Whole Dried BSFL for backyard Poultry and Birds

Whole dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae are a nutritious and highly palatable ingredient for birds and poultry alike. Easily incorporated into feed blends or fed by hand, they are a stimulating and natural feed source that improves the quality of eggs. 

This was recently confirmed by an ongoing Viridian customer – a long established national supplier of feed to backyard chicken owners. 

Trialing dried black soldier flies from our supplier Viridian Renewable Technology with our resident chooks it is clear it is well received, and they cannot wait

Global research has demonstrated that including as little as 5% of these dried BSFL in poultry diets can have a positive impact on eggs. From stronger shells to eggs with richer coloured yolks and increased nutrient density – they are just better. 

Traditional feeds, although nutritionally formulated and balanced, may contain ingredients that would not necessarily exist in the wild. Chickens naturally want to eat insects – as the video clearly demonstrates, they are very happy. Owners are also happy as they clearly know what they are feeding their chickens. 

Viridian only takes pre-consumer surplus food materials to produce feed for our larvae. Combining this with our proprietary processing technology, we give our customers the best possible natural feed – setting the standard for quality, palatability and safety.
