I read the file on here for breeding mealworms, and I loved the idea of not having to separate the different life stages! I bought 1,000 mealworms from someone, used a 5 gal, have a 10 gal ready for when they start reproducing. I’ve seen pupae several times, but have only seen a couple beetles, always dead. I’ve since separated the pupae (see photo).
I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong for the all in one tank. Maybe it just needs time to get sorted? I have 2-3” deep wheat brand (organic even), and I toss in slices of potato, and twice I’ve put in slices of red pepper.
It’s on a shelf in our living room, we’re in a pocket desert, so we’re not humid and we’re really cold. Had it only 3-ish weeks...
Help, please!
