This display box holds 15 sachets of fresh silkworm larvae, 15 g per sachet, for keepers who feed insectivorous reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, birds and predatory fish and want soft, whole larvae instead of dried feed.

- Each sachet holds 15 g, and the 15-sachet display box is the packaging unit, so the quantity per feeding is set in advance.
