Mealworm Question

RickMck Jan 02, 2004 08:08 PM

I have a question about Mealworms. I keep my mealworms in a mixture of Cornmeal, Wheat germ & Commercial gut load with baby carrot 1/2. They do really well in this set up; my question is how do people give them to there Leo's?
I was first putting them in a small bowl with calcium but the mealie wouldn't last very long, so I tried filling the bowl with my gut load and that doesn't seem to do much better. I've even put baby carrot slices in with them and it hasn't helped them much.
Any help would be great.

How long do you want them to last? What do you mean, last, by the way? You mean until they die? Mealworms usually live a long time with out food or water with out dying. They just stop moving.
