Breeding and raising live mealworms is a simple process but it is a time consuming endeavour and requires regular attention and care. Raising mealworms to have a consistent supply year round saves a great deal of money versus purchasing multiple times per year from a local feed store or an online retailer. You are also more likely to have higher yield when the worms are home grown. Listed below are instructions on raising, breeding and maintaining a colony of mealworms. You can purchase a Mealworm Breeder Kit[3] that includes everything you need to kickstart your colony. If all goes well, you should have mealworms to use as feeders within about 3 months.
