At petco, you can get 500 mealworms for your reptile for like 6 dollars, and just so you have a good colony, I'd reccommend you get 2 of those containers : D
Happy Breeding! and Merry Christmas :D

The bedding the mealworms come in is only for temporary use. It's better to use oats (or bran? I've never tried that) and provide fresh fruits and vegetables. That way your mealworms will be healthy, and it's better for whatever you feed them to.

hey im raising meal worms and i learned from a book at the library that the cereal kind of bran isn't good for meal worms. Pluse at the pet store when i bought them the mealworms were in the sawdust kind of bran.

Those containers are way to small to have a good size colony.Check out my mealworm and superworm breeding video for all you need to know and feel free to ask me for help.

Too cool. You have been lots of help. I am tired of buying meal worms for our pet duck. She likes a lot at one time and one tub just does not go very far. Take a look at our duck on a video. Press my name and go to the duck.

They look like lobsters with out legs, ad they turn white then they thurn like a yellow color, and the chest cavity will crack and emerges the bettel.
