Haha yeah I’m just getting to my first beetles we’ll see how we do with a big box of bugs. Lol

It's the beetles that "bug" me.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I had a mealworm farm for several months. The girls certainly loved the live ones.
I read that the beetles and larvae would eat the dead. They did not and the farm began to stink to high heaven and I didn't have time to pick the dead out of the container every day. I'm back to freeze dried mealies and the chickens love them just as much. I just buy a much larger bag off Amazon to keep the price reasonable.

Welcome to BYC! I sure hope my teen keeps helping me - I figure organization and know how is my job, physical labor is more hers. Hope your kids stay enthusiastic.
