Anyone raise mealworms?

[CCourson05]

I would like to get a colony going... Anyone know where I can buy cheaply?

We got ours at Pet-co (look in the reptile section) or you can find them online. From what I've read, do not get the "super" or "giant" variety as they do not do well if you are raising them.

I just bought 500 for $6.99 at Petco to start a colony. There are good instructions on growing your own here ~ https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=56638-how-to-raise-mealworms
