At 51.3% crude protein and 31.31% oil this is the richest single food Henry Bell make by a wide margin, and it is the one thing that will reliably bring a garden robin down to within a metre of you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDried worms keep for months in a sealed tub, which is the whole argument for them over live ones. A 500g bag goes further than the weight suggests, because you offer mealworms by the handful as a top-up rather than filling a feeder with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne ingredient: dried mealworm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude protein 51.3%, crude fat 31.31%, crude fibre 5.2%, crude ash 3.3% — Henry Bell's own declared figures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtein for winter survival, and for adults feeding nestlings in spring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffer on the ground, from a bird table or in a mealworm feeder.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStores dry, unlike live worms, which need refrigerating and using up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHenry Bell also bag mealworms in 100g and 1kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobins above all, and also starlings, blackbirds, nuthatches, blue tits, tree sparrows, song thrushes, wrens and great spotted woodpeckers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring and early summer, when parent birds are hunting insects for chicks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-taming a garden robin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGround and table feeding as much as tube feeders.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot an everyday staple on its own — it is a protein top-up.
