feeding superworms

I can't find a place to get corn meal up here but I found soybean meal. Are they much different? Can I feed it to the superworms for breeding?

Any kind of meal should be fine. I use unmedicated chick starter from a feed store.

I use egg layer mash for chickens, but what you have should be fine.

I wish i was more help, I got to the beetle stage and in 6 months didnt find a single worm....Finally fed the beetles to my beardie, just not cracked up for the worm breeding i guess....

Yea, I'm having some problems too. For a while I had more beetles than I knew what to do with.. I feed a few to my beardies just because I could. Now I'm just getting a bunch of dead bugs so I'm going to try feeding them differently and see if that helps.

what temps are you keeping them at?

Room temperature. But in the reptile room that ranges anywhere for 80-85. They're in one of those bead containers with all the separate spots and they're covered with a towel so it's dark.

room temp doesn't answer things...

room temp here is 65 degrees

to be successful you need to get them above 70-75 degrees to spark them eating thus growing..

Well obviously you didn't read my whole answer considering I stated that the room I keep the reptiles in is always 80-85 degrees. All the heat sources and a space heater in there keep it nice and warm.

your answer is borderline rude. Please read the thread start to finish and tell me where it says your feeders are in your reptile room. You may think you implied they are there, but it is not said. People can not help other if proper info is not given. People won't help those who are rude.
