What to feed these worms?
I have got these worms in the last meet from Vishaal Ji for Romi. He (Romi) is infected and suffering with Dengu. He is still not in position to care these poor creatures. I don't want to kill them and want to feed. Please guide me what can I offer these creatures.

Re: What to feed these worms?
This is what I do with my meal worm culture.
Mixed all the kinds of flours and wheats I got and added a bit of brick powder. I throw in a piece of potato and coconut and change It once in two weeks. They like moisture so some people cult meal worms in coco peat

Re: What to feed these worms?
Potatoes, carrots, cucumber, less moisture containing fruits like apples, pear, etc
The fruits and veggies are only for providing moisture to the worms
Replace them from time to time and do not add stuff that gets mouldy easily
Their real food comes from their bedding. So grinded quaker oats and a few other flours in small amounts make a good culturing medium for them.
Their bedding needs to be changed once in 20-30 days when the colour of their bedding changes to dark brown-black
Hope Romi gets well soon
