The History of Phoenix Worms®

Phoenix Worms began with a question about bringing black soldier fly larvae to the reptile-feeding community. In 2000, gecko authority and pet food producer Allen Repashy approached entomologist Dr. Craig Sheppard about the idea.

Five years of development followed. The work included producing the insects year-round, selecting packing materials, and gathering feedback from breeders before Phoenix Worms reached the market in 2005.

The Phoenix Worm Store website launched in 2006. Since then, genuine Phoenix Worms have been fed by pet owners, breeders, pet stores, and zoos.

Our story brings together insect research, breeder feedback, and a commitment to producing a distinctive live feeder. “Dedicated to Excellence” remains our motto, guiding our focus on product quality and helpful customer service.
