The small mealworms (not superworms) are the easiest to do. You can make a medium by pulverizing wheat bran cereal fine enough so you can drag a sieve through it and pick up the worms. Or use fingers or tweezers. Some people use chicken mash if you can get it. I'm still trying to raise pinheads with determination and hope. I had 3 cups of wingless fruit flies going until I forgot about them but will be ordering another kit from Josh's Frogs soon and will try to get a consistent breeding project started again. My local reptile store keeps a record of crickets purchased so I can pay $27 at the first of the month and pick up at intervals when I need them. Don't start culturing anything that flies around the house or your parents will squash your attempts at raising food.
