Default Bean Weavils - starter colony

I have bean weavils for sale as starter colonies, complete with adult bean weavils and eggs. These are great for feeding slings, dart frogs and various other inverts. The colony is small but you'll soon have plenty and as long as you don't feed off all your adults you'll have a colony for ever.
The adults don't need feeding or watering and you only need to add dry beans. Simple to carefore, the easiest colony to maintain.
They come with a caresheet, £1.50 a tub plus p&p (approx £2 or cheaper once I've found out the details).

Sorry but can't help it , a care sheet for bean weevils . The only way I can see to stop mine breeding would be to starve them .

I can confirm postage at £1.50 which is anything from 1-3 days but Teeny received some within a day, and she lives on the IoW.

So, for £3 you have a starter culture and only need to buy a pack of dried beans from your supermarket to have food for life! Extremely easy to keep, excellent for slings.

It's what they do . They hatch out , lay eggs on the beans they die out only to appear again weeks later .
