Well i've always wondered what the eggs looked like....
and now I know (Or atleast I HOPE these are their eggs...if not i'm gonna be inundated with summit else...LOL) Was banging their old veg on the side of the tub and then visually checking it for baby mealies before I chucked it in the bin (Didn't want it goin mouldy or messing up the wheatbran/oats mix) Spotted this litte white 'ball' in the folded up skin of an apple....After checking the rest of the bits of food I found loads of them...

I've been breeding my own mealworms like this for a few years now. As long as you don't take too many out then it's almost impossible to kill the colony off!
Mine are fed on kitchen scraps (potato, carrot, lettuce, etc), cereals people tried but didn't like and bisuits that have gone soft. I think I started with 1kg of worms and only had to add more (2 x 1kg) when we had hatched 14 leo geckos last year. My colony is in a 46cm x 30cm x 17cm Exo Terra plastic tank I ended up with spare

Srry if this has been answered before but I'm so lazy...23pages @_@
I buy mealies from my local pet store but don't plan to breed them. How long do they stay in the larvae stage at room temp in a small tub?
