Wahoo success!!! Went to the petstore and they sold me 20 superworms. Got a container and some wheat bran and oats for the substrate. I have that about 2inches thick. Made a some holes in the lid and put coffee filters on for grilles. So all in all I am well happy with todays progress. The plan is to leave them in the tub for a week and fatten them up a bit, then next weekend separate them for pupation(sp?)
They were pretty cheap too, 3.75€ for 20.
I got some pictures, but they all buried themselves straight away.
The petstore are also going to try and source me a BD
They said they have never had one before, but they will contact their sources and give me a call on Mondya or Tuesday, which in Spanish time means Wednesday, Thursday. Two weeks ago this looked like a dead project, now it is well truly in full flow.
OFF-TOPIC - The pupa that I saw the other day in the Anole cage (picture three on my previous post) is gone, but there was a little redish beetle running around. Is that a mealworm beetle?
