We’re not good

Unfortunately the 2 cans I purchased weren’t good. They were brown and some even black and soggy. They definitely didn’t look like they do in the description or the picture on the can. I couldn’t feed them to my sugar gliders. Too much of a risk, I didn’t want them to get sick. They weren’t expired either.
This was the first time buying these. So I had nothing to compare them too but I knew they didn’t look or smell right. Usually I get super worms, meal worms, crickets and grasshoppers, among other snacks from this company.
I reached out to the company and after a few emails back and forth they finally agreed to refund me and allow me to repurchase meal worms with free shipping since I was short on their snacks for the month. I can only Order once a month because that’s all we can afford at this time so it wouldn’t be fair to make me spend another $50 for free shipping or pay $12 for shipping to replace what I had to Throw away. Anywho, I’m
Sure they would’ve liked them since my 5 little fuzz butts enjoy the other insects I buy from this company. I might purchase these one more time to see if the next batch is better quality.

All three of my white faced sugar gliders absolutely LOVE these - prefer them over live wax worms... you should hear them purr when they eat one - awesome treat that's easy to store and use, and easy to hand feed (just watch it as they DO GET EXCITED and occasionally nip me in their haste ;-) -Jaimie H B.
