Like all true insects, mealworms go through four distinct stages in their development. The beetles are black and lay eggs that hatch into tiny mealworms. These grow into larger orangey brown coloured mealworms then develop into white pupas that grow into beetles. They take around 3 months to complete the cycle, but higher temperatures and more light speeds the process up. Put the mealworms in about 4cm of bran Tray 1. The mealworms need to be kept at a temperature of between 45 and 85 degrees. Feed your mealworms small pieces of fruit or vegetables they feed off the bran, but fruit and vegetables provide moisture.
