Yesterday when I was installing a new light I found a container of small mealworms that I lost a few weeks ago and as was about to toss it in the trash I noticed a few pupa and picked them out, and there’s 4 in total and 2 that I was confused about. One looks like it’s ready to emerge (I’ve cared for cricket farms and super worm farms along with a few mealworms) or it’s dead, and another one I don’t even know what is going with it but I think it’s maybe a deformity/just beginning to pupate
Nice bonus find! The dried up ones are probably gone but it might not hurt to keep them on hand in some substrate for a bit and see if that's really the case or not. The others look good. Very similar looking to morio worm pupae.
