I might start breeding my own mealworms, and I have a few questions.
One, I have a container I might keep the colony in, and I want to know if its big enough. It has 5 trays, each tray is 1 1/2 in tall, 7in long, and 6in wide.
The whole thing is 10 in tall, 7in long, and 6in wide. I think it would be big enough, because im only feeding one leo. What do you think?
Next, which stages in life should go where? (How many trays do the beetles get, how many for the worms, etc.)
And im confused about the beetles laying eggs on the substrate, then changing the substrate every 2 weeks...?
Thanks for any help :main_thumbsup:
