Better Mealworms. Better Birds.
Made with carefully selected grains, brewer's yeast and calcium to help keep live mealworms healthy, active and naturally nutritious.
If you're buying quality live mealworms, it makes sense to look after them properly.
Most people keep mealworms in plain bran. It works... after a fashion. But mealworms are living creatures, and like all livestock they benefit from a balanced diet.
That's why we developed Wiggly Farm Blend.
Developed on our regenerative Herefordshire farm, Wiggly Farm Blend is a carefully balanced blend of rolled grains, brewer's yeast and natural calcium, designed to help keep live mealworms healthy, active and naturally nutritious until you're ready to feed them to the birds and wildlife you love.
Healthy mealworms don't just last longer.
They become better food.

Why These Ingredients?

Is this just bedding?
No. Wiggly Farm Blend acts as both bedding and a balanced food source.
Can't I just use bran?
You can, but Wiggly Farm Blend provides a more balanced diet than bran alone, helping keep mealworms in better condition.
What should I use for moisture?
Fresh carrot, potato or apple all work well. Replace them regularly before they begin to dry out or spoil.
How long will my mealworms last?
When kept cool, dry and well cared for with Wiggly Farm Blend and fresh moisture, live mealworms can remain in excellent condition for several weeks.
Can I breed mealworms?
Yes! Wiggly Farm Blend also makes an excellent base for keeping and breeding mealworms.
What should I do with the frass?
Don't throw it away. Mealworm frass is an excellent natural soil improver and can be sprinkled around houseplants, flowers, vegetables and containers.
Wiggly Farm Blend has been developed at Lower Blakemere Farm in Herefordshire.
As regenerative farmers, we're passionate about healthy natural systems. Looking after the insects that feed our garden birds and wildlife is simply another part of that story.
Why It Matters
Mealworms are what they eat.
A healthier diet helps keep them in better condition, making them a better source of nutrition for robins, blackbirds, hedgehogs, reptiles, amphibians and other insect-eating wildlife.
It's a simple idea.
Better Mealworms. Better Birds.

Brilliant live worms and great service!
I ordered a batch of live composting worms for my new wormery, and they arrived in perfect condition — lively, healthy, and ready to get to work straight away. The packaging was eco-friendly, and the team even included a little guide on how to settle them in. My kitchen scraps are disappearing fast, and I’ve already started harvesting my first bit of worm compost. Couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic bokashi composting advice
As a complete beginner to bokashi composting, I really appreciated how helpful the team were. They answered all my questions quickly and gave me simple, clear instructions to get started. The bokashi bran is top quality and smells fresh and pleasant. After just a few weeks, I’ve turned my kitchen waste into brilliant compost-ready material with no odour or mess. Highly recommended!

Top-notch British birdseed mix
The British birdseed from Wigglys is superb. It attracts a lovely variety of garden birds — robins, finches, and even a pair of goldfinches have started visiting regularly. You can tell it’s a quality mix with no fillers or dust. Delivery was quick, and everything was packaged sustainably. It’s become my go-to source for bird feed!

“I’ve always been interested in farming, gardening and food, but Wiggly Wigglers has inspired me to take that interest much further and look at the whole thing in a much more holistic way. I love feeding the birds, making compost and keeping quail, and our Bokashi kit has genuinely revolutionised how we deal with food waste as a family. It’s helped us close so many loops at home – turning what we used to throw away into something useful. Once you start thinking like that, you see opportunities everywhere.” J O-B
