I just got my first batch of superworms in last week and just read up on how to actually take care of them today, tsk tsk I know lol. I read about using oatmeal and corn meal as bedding/food and also about putting in carrots for moisture. Today I came home on my break from work and cut up a baby carrot and placed it in there, however by the time I got home five hours later they had eaten all of it. So am I supposed to keep carrots in there at all times? I guess I could just put in maybe two a day or is that too much? I'm thinking because they haven't had any moisture since I got them that is why they ate the carrot so quickly. I cut up 1 1/2 baby carrots and stuck them in there tonight because I changed their bedding.

Another question I had.....I did grind up the quick oats that I bought and microwaved them for about 30 seconds but I forgot to microwave the corn meal that I bought and had already put in half the worms before I realized this. I've heard of the grain mites you can get, does anyone have a photo of what they look like? I have the worms in a kritter keeper so it's well ventilated so I don't think it should have high humidity like containers with the screens.... any suggestions?

I keep my supers in a 7qt tuperware container with whole oats as bedding, and I toss in a 2 quarters of an apple inside for food and moisture. I tried using carrots but I found that they dried up really quickly and I didn't notice them eating it, rather eating each other.
I have heard wheat bran is the best bedding for supers, but I have yet to try it myself.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
