Meal Worms / Beetles and Pupae Looking For New Home

[kendles]

I am finding myself overwhelmed by life things right now. We are so busy, and frankly I am not going to be able to keep up with my Meal Worm Farm...
I have about 5,000+ Large Meal Worms + 300+ Beetles + 400+ Pupae (these numbers are just a good guess, I am guesstimating on the low side)

I am wanting to find someone that would like to have these. I'm asking a reasonable charge for them, plus Priority Flat Rate Shipping. I would like to get these sent before the weather gets too hot.

I am willing to split them up as well, Meal Worms, Pupae, Beetles - in any quantity or combination - first come

please message me if you are seriously interested.

While i would hate to deprive someone of a chance to get your meal worms you can keep control of the size of your worm farm by limiting the numbers of worms that turn into beetles. So to keep the numbers of beetles to a managable number feed the extra pupae and beetles to the chickens. If you want to be rid of the whole farm you can feed the whole farm to your chickens.

You can put your whole meal worm farm into a shallow pan (like a kitty litter pan) then put the pan into the chicken coop and hens will eat the whole thing beetles, worms, pupae as well as the bedding. They would be all gone within the week. If you don't want the chickens tossing the bran and baby worms all over you can put large holed chicken wire on the top so they have to pick out the treat.

well... limiting/downsizing quantity is not going to matter. I will not be able to care for them. I know they don't require a lot, but I will be unable to provide minimum. Feeding the lot to the chickens would be an awesome solution, if I had or know someone that does have chickens. We are city people and "they" (the city council) frowns on them (walking around). I was raising them to feed the wild birds.

anyway, if you know anyone that is looking for a good starter colony, let me, or them know.
