HOW TO START A MEALWORM FARM | CLEANING YOUR MEALWORM HABITAT 

Thank you, I learnt more from you than the professional breeder RU-vidrs.

Your chickens are so well behaved... if I had my mealworms open and accessible like that in front of them they would be in there eating them up! lol

All my beetles have come from my local pet supplies plus so I don't think they spray them, but maybe other pet stores do. Just got a lot of mealworms out of my latest beetles and sadly my last two beetles passed. (I never expected to breed beetles, I was just taking care of them cause they were hiding in my leopard gecko enclosure and I figured if they survived all that, they deserved to live as long as possible (which was almost a year!) lol. Now I have my own little farm. 😊

Thank you. Definitely the best video on mealfarms so far that I’ve watched. Well done. Thank you again.:)

This is fascinating! What a great way to feed chickens! Very easy to follow your directions. Thanks!

Awesome! I learned so much with you. Thank you for taking the time to show me.

Thanks for sharing your help today and sharing your help

Enjoyed this! I'm just starting out again with mealworms. Fun and very low maintenance!

I bought my mealworms (4 tubs at £2.50 each) from Jollyes (UK) to start my farm when we got our bearded dragon and haven't had a problem with pupa or beetles 👍🏻

Thank you for all of the info!

Great vid! Thank you for taking the time to post this...

What a wonderful video. You really were super helpful and I love your process. Keep up the good work I am subscribing and liking your video and I’m sure I will too like the rest of them.

Thanks alot for this information

Hmmm interesting tip about pet store mealworms. I didn't know they were treated/sprayed with anything. It would explain what used to happen with my birds. In the past, there were a couple of times I bought meal worms from pet smart on a pinch when I ran out and my order hadn't arrived. I stopped though because without fail, my starlings would end up getting diarrhea and poop the worms out unprocessed every time. This never happened with breeder mealworms. Now I avoid mealworms from chain stores. Thanks for the video very helpful!

Yes very informative ❤️🐓

Thanks for the video.

I must have the most resilient "mealworm farm" because I never wanted it lmao, no humidity, and they still pupate.... But, I have accepted them, and now knowing a bit of humidity would make them super happy, I wonder how proper care will make their numbers boost!

GOOD JOB MAIM KEEP IT PLS PLS LIVE STOCK IS A GOOD THING THANK U

Man ur operation is pretty nice.

In terms of pet store meal worms...just let the meal worms go through its process..im sure you'll be surprised..and pupae starts to form.

I bet these things would be great for feeding fish like tilapia in a tank with watercress and waterchestnuts

This was great! I use mealworms as feeders for my spiders (tarantulas and such) and I have some pupating right now so I thought hey, why not see if theyre easy to raise, and they really are!

*Hello, I'm new here watching I just lost a long comment I was leaving you. I totally appreciate this informative video. I bought mealworms for the lizards that come around. I like the idea of being able to have multi uses for having mealworms for the garden. I loved hearing your chicken share its inputs about what you were sharing with us that was too funny. I plan to grow for another fertilizer for the garden. I want you grow a bunch of greenery Foods indoors for healthy eating. The one part I don't like about having mealworms to raise is the Beatles is there too ugly. Worms I can touch all day long but the Beatles no. I need were talking about getting chickens and I would love to be able to help them out with the meal worms. You did a fantastic job with this video share. I'm still watching your video and wondering how much the sifter things cost. 😍😍😍* Sharon in SC

Have you tried using sand for substrate ? because if you are feeding them food separately then perhaps sand is a good option ? Oats and other things can be served on a small plastic plate separately kept in the middle of the sand box.

Newbie mealworm breeder here 😊 I've been collecting frass and applying to my house plants however I've read online that the mealworm skins are good in fertiliser too known as chitin, apparently when you add chitin to the soil it triggers an immune response by the plant thinking they're under attack resulting in thicker stems and becoming more resistant to disease. I was wondering if you used chitin on your plants if so how much chitin are you adding to each house plant? I dont want to add chitin and come down to find monster house plants on a morning! Any advice would be appreciated :) Thank you so much for this video too, currently caring for 1500 mealworms, set their storage up, got the mesh for the eggs to fall thru etc currently waiting for my first pupae, got dozens all curled up lying motionless while the rest of my mealies shed like crazy since putting them into complete darkness, cant wait for my first beatle to emerge 😅 such a fascinating hobby

Cảm ơn bạn chia sẻ video rất hay, chúc bạn luôn thành công nhé 😊

You should look into Black Soldier flys they are a really good source of calcium for your chickens!🐓

👍

Nice, i want to have that sifter too but we dont have that here in the Philippines. We have a small farm of mealworms too. 🥰

Thanks for the info!

But banana peal works very well though

Very interesting.. Do you need to cut and glue a screen in the top bin ? Thanks Bob

How do you know when to clean the containers?

Would the mealworm eat husk? Or rice hull? And have you ever had mealworm eggs get into your veggie beds, when you apply the frass as fertilizer?

Great Video! I was wondering how to put the mealworms in an outdoor compost pile and even get them going in a wooded area with the forest floor full of rotting leaves. How to have more maggots in a Compost Pile for chickens? Thank you

So you didn't need to add any holes for ventilation?

What is your IG Can you teach me how to cultured those? worm because I got Backyard Road island CHickens

you might want to switch to cockroaches or black larve flies instead of meal worms just for the breathing problems that go with it. You never know when that allergic reaction going to pop. Also. you can split about quarter the mealworm feed with dried azolla or duckweed.

How long does it take to go from worm to pupae, from pupae to beetles? My beardie LOVES the beetles. I bought worms, now I'm waiting...lol

Do you sift the frass again later just in case eggs fell through and hatch?

Why do you separate the larger worms from the small ones?

How do you get the worms.

Wheat bran needs to be baked at 150 to prevent mite infections.

Im breeding for outdoor birds and anoles. What do i do with the beetles.

I hope you or another can answer my question I cannot find BULK wheat bran in my area Is there another item I can use that I wont be spending more $$$$ on bugs than on food for my table? Lol

How do i get the meal worm to start

How many should you start with?

Is vegetable waste not a good food source or is it to messy?

Just one question, the frass can cause severe respiratory problems. that is my main concern. Do you wear mask?

hola te recomiendo uses cubre boca
