I am giving my Mealworm Colony a few days Break before I start anymore Experiments. They don't seem to eat as much when they don't get a "Dry feed" break in-between.

I have also decided to split beetles from Mealworms. That way I can almost always have something going on. Today I will begin their own Journal on the Blog!

Here is a picture of the mealworms today:

I haven't had time to get any pupae out yet.

I know this will come as a shock to some, but I have decided to just discontinue this, too many Mealworms are turning into Pupae and I thought It would be easier just to throw them all together in with my feeders. That doesn't mean I won't be doing fun experiments. I just won't be doing them with this Colony.

I should mention this on this blog post [as well as the other] in about 9 days my Mealworm Colony will be 1 Year old. I have a special Video Slide-Show coming for then Stay Tuned!

I think it's time to feed them more veggies again!

I have some nice pictures of them eating carrots, in less then 24 hrs they have destroyed them! I'm sorry I've been busy and haven't posted much on the blog. I'm still working hard to at least post some pictures tonight [I've been taking a bit of those but just never gotten them uploaded.]

Haven't been doing much with these. Just feeding them and taking out any beetles and adding to the beetle empire Very Happy

I've made them a new Home, and will hopefully be doing a video on their new Enclosure soon. They have exploded to at least 150-200+ and I'm finding tons of larvae, and they haven't even all turned into beetles and stuff. I'm pretty sure that the next Time I get beetles I'll end up in the thousands Smile
