[QUOTE="Deacon, post: 290633, member: 8619"] Ranitomeya, What do you mean about superworms needing to be separated in order to pupate? From each other or from the mealworms? I've been assuming the superworms' adult stage is a big beetle. Is that correct? I did put them together and they went to the bottom of the meal so I won't know what they are eating. Are the superworms big meat eaters versus grains? Today I fed pieces of the superworms (after pulling out the black gut) to my mantids and they were a much bigger hit than mealworms! Even the tiny adult male Budwing and female ghost chomped on them and they are both picky eaters. So, those 21 superworms that are left may not last to pupate. [/QUOTE]
