I've been giving them carrot chips on a plastic lid and only removing (and freezing) carrots if they got moldy. They still eat each other tho. Think they might be laying eggs in carcasses but I dunno. Ghastly things, I don't want to know. This was mostly an experiment as I don't really like feeding them to my toad unless they're newly molted, and when the ones I had started to pupate, I just went with it. When pupa turned to beetles, I put them in a small sterilite box with wheat bran, some flattened out pieces of toilet paper tube for cover, with 3/4 of sides covered in paper (for added darkness), letting them do their raping and mauling and egg laying. I can still see some unhatched eggs at the bottom. I'm sort of hoping the beetles I still have (maybe 20-30? i dunno) will just die off. I can't knowingly facilitate their deaths, so I keep feeding them.

Gave Banjo (my toad) 3 or 4 baby meal worms this afternoon. I know she likes them, but I recently had a poop scare where I didn't think she was going and all she'd been eating was european nightcrawlers and a few baby dubia. She pooped tho (yay!) so a few tiny ones, plus the calcium dusted nightcrawler earlier, shouldn't pose much of a risk of impaction. So the superworms or whatever they're called, are out, due to their size and her size.

Between the remaining crickets that just won't die and my roach bins, I just don't have the room for more bug love.

Happy that it worked tho, thought it'd take longer to see little baby meal worms.
