Hello
Other than the standard carrots or yams what else are you feeding your mealworms to increase their nutrition as feeders?

I ask as read on a site that there are ways to increase their calcium and overall nutritional value by feeding certain foods but it did not state how.

I was thinking maybe high protein dry dog or cat food?

I feed them to some amphibians and calcium dusting is not possible due to semi-wet conditions.

Thank you
