    I saw in your other thread that you donated some to a rescue. That's always a good option, and you could maybe do that again in a few weeks or a month or whatever and slowly bring your numbers down. Would a local pet store want to purchase any from you? Can you sell on eBay, MorphMarket, etc? Not sure what else to suggest, since I don't have experience in raising feeders or selling living things on the internet.

    Contact the nearest Audubon Society- birds LOVE them too. People who feed the birds often feed mealworms.

    Thanks- I know, because I feed the birds too. Mealworms are also high-protein treats for rodent-ranchers (like myself). I have freeze-dried mealworms for both my rodents & local birds, but trust me, they like 'em "live" too. (BTW, I have plenty at the moment.)
