Care

Habitat

  • Use a plastic or glass container with smooth sides (10-20 gallons) to prevent escapes. Ensure adequate ventilation.
  • Fill the container with 1-2 inches of substrate, such as wheat bran, oats, or cornmeal, which also serves as food.
  • Maintain between 70-80°F for optimal growth. Cooler temperatures (50-60°F) slow their lifecycle for storage.

Food and Water

  • Provide vegetables like carrots, potatoes, or apples to supply moisture and nutrients. Replace as needed to avoid mold.
  • Supplement with chicken feed, ground grains, or commercial mealworm food.
  • Avoid standing water. Moisture from fresh vegetables is sufficient.

Cleaning and Maintenance

  • Remove uneaten vegetables daily to prevent mold.

Lifecycle

  • Tiny, white eggs hatch into larvae (mealworms).
  • The worms grow over several weeks, shedding their skin multiple times.
  • Mealworms transform into pupae before becoming adult beetles.
  • Darkling beetles lay eggs, continuing the cycle.
