Yeah Larvae, pupae , then beetle. When they are pupae I still feed it to my Leo. They actually get softer instead of getting harder. If the pupae is close to emerging it will be black, which obviously mean the pupae is done forming in to the beetle. Don't feed the beetles to Leos they have very hard shell.
You should probably have a fecal test done just in case. Impaction in a strong possibility.
As for the mealworms, i use mealworms as a staple diet. Thats what was recomended to me by the majority of the people on this forum.
