Difference between Phoenix/BSFL??

[TheBeard9789]

Hey guys I just made a order and I caught myself at the last minute what's the difference between Phoenix worms and BSFL? I thought they are basically the same thing yet if they are why sell both? For example I order almost everything from Josh's froggs for all my bugs when they are in stock and they sell both Phoenix worms and BSFL. Should I pay no attention and order either one or are they different

Ok so I went to look at Joshs Frogs and I cant find the phoenix worms - I did however find that they have Butterworms so that was a good thing - so I ordered some -- but from what I understand yes phoenix worms and BSFL are the same thing they are are also known as calci worms and nutri grubs

They are the same insect, but branded differently. PWs are a specific companies BSFL, supposedly fed a specific diet to provide the stated nutrient content.

BSFL is just a non-branded version of a pheonix worm.

It's no different than if I decided to start breeding mealworms. I want to brand them to market them specially as having a specific diet, and thus a better nutrient profile. So I call my worms Claudworms. They are still mealworms, just my specific mealworms sold from my specific company.
