Bearded dragons have complex needs, especially when it comes to diet. But this doesn’t mean that you should take them for granted. not heard that one.Bearded dragons are beloved reptile pets, notorious for their ease of care and cuddly personalities. Ĭan't comment on the carrots (leaving them there). <<< move the beetles to a fresh lot of bedding weekly, this way some eggs will survive the hungry beetles and in a month or so you''ll see the bedding "moving" and you might be able see the very tiny worms not long afterwards. I bought some BSFL and have them in the fridge at the moment, waiting for the wild skinks to start showing up, they are in for a treat !!Īnd I wouldn't be adverse to breeding my own BSFL I have tons of dried carrots sitting in there as it is. I've heard you shouldn't remove the old food, as they might lay eggs on it, so I don't want to overload them with food. How often should I supply a water source for the adults? I throw a baby carrot in about every 2-3 days, and they swarm it. I've yet to see any worms appear in the lower bin.Īre the adults eating their young before they manage to get down to the lower bin? Do superworm hatchlings not have the same burrowing instinct? Or have I just not had any eggs hatch yet? I can't find any information as to the incubation period for superworm eggs. I've heard this particular setup is very successful for mealworms, as the natural instinct of the new hatchlings is to burrow as deep as possible. I've got them set up in a plastic tote with a screen bottom (to allow the new larvae to escape from their parents), on top of another plastic tote. Last week was the first time I saw breeding, but I likely just missed it before. The superworm beetles emerged from their pupae about a month ago. (on another note, I got BSFL adults to breed indoors in captivity! Y'all let me know if I should make a thread about that) I'm getting bug colonies up and running, and the superworms are giving me trouble.
