Aren't the mealworms enough? It's super cold in Aus right now and I don't fancy bug hunting in this weather. I can try look for dried seaweed in stores, though. I've tried giving them lettuce but they won't take it.I edited my post above to add a couple of things so maybe take another look.
I have long plastic trough feeders I’ve put dividers in but whatever works. You could put the commercial chick crumbs in the feeder and add jar lids or similar for the other ingredients to be separated between?
Make sure they have access to some high protein ingredients like egg, insects, alfalfa seeds, seaweed. If they don’t get enough they won’t do well.
In oz you should be able to collect loads of bugs for free with a white sheet and a torch.
