This is a female, they will stick egg sac out sometimes, they can draw it back in. Even though this is an egg sac they still are live bearers.

This is an egg sac that came off entirely, these will never become dubias as they have to mature inside the female.

At this time there were only 2 meal worm bins, I added 2 more in the empty spots you see. The very bottom is for sprouting oats and boss for the chickens.

Darkling beetle (adult form of meal worm) shortly after the molt, it will darken over the next couple of days until it is dark brown or black.

Wow I never thought id see the day that I could identify all these insects XD. Ive bred most of them for lizards at one point or the other. The dubias were amazing but sadly illegal here. Do you breed them all for your chickens?

I'm trying to do the "super worms" but not having much luck. I also have two garbage cans with bsfs in them. I only have 10 chickens and will only have 7 when I find homes for these 3 roos that were supposed to be shes. Any suggestions since you have had so much experience along these lines? THX! Lovin' chickens, beverly
