help with meal worms

[dannyd]

hi everyone. i baught meal worms today for the first time since my the petstore i got to ran out of crickets. i baught a small thing of a 100. the guy said put them in the freezer until feeding time. since they are cheaper then crickets i thought i would see if my lizard likes them so i can breed them. after doing some research i found out i can put them in a small container with baby careal oatmeal and use a fruit of vegetable as something to drink.
does this sound ok to you guys?

can some of you give me some advise on anything regarding these things?

put the mealworms in the refridgerator rather than the freezer. try this link for breeding info (just grabbed it from a quick search): http://www.wormman.com/mealworm_breeding.cfm. they are super easy to breed. what kind of lizard are you feeding?

Do be careful handling the mealies the first time...I saw a pet store employee who was allergic to them but didn't know until after feeding time and half her face was swollen...=P
