Oh and don't forget about dubia, she lives in NM, if it is the warm area of NM perfect climate.This is from the fermenting feeds thread I just mentioned... there is currently a discussion going on about using older canned goods to supplement your feed so that is the subject matter.
"This is absolutely perfect food for BSF - Black Soldier Flies
They are very high is protein and calcium.
I would use the BSF as a good go between for old foods and then you will have awesome animal protein after the conversion.
That's what I do. Although because I free range in the summer, I freeze all my BSF in the summer and then feed them in the winter.
I have many gallon size bags full already that I've accumulated this summer.
This is a great way to assure quality animal protein year round."
I thought of you when reading this and figured I would share it. There are also mealworms that you could raise... they're not difficult. There's another link for that. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/492636/mealworm-farming/6130#post_11690474
