πŸ› Dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) are becoming a popular and sustainable ingredient in animal feed. They are an excellent source of high-quality protein and essential amino acids, crucial for the growth and health of various animals, including poultry, fish, and pets. πŸŸπŸ• Beyond protein, BSFL also contain beneficial fats, vitamins, and minerals.
