Description
Superworms like mealworms, superworms are the larvae of a darkling beetle, Zophobas morio. Not to be confused with giant mealworms, which are mealworms sprayed with a juvenile hormone, superworms are a great source of calcium, fat and fiber. Compared to mealworms, superworms yield much higher amounts of those three, mostly due to the hard chitin that superworms have. This rather thick chitin can make it harder for your pet to eat, so be sure when buying them your pet can handle chomping through it.
Caring for Superworms:
A one thousand count bulk of superworms can be kept in a large plastic container, with air holes in the top. You should cover the superworms with a thick layer of wheat middling, oatmeal, or Fluker's mealworm bedding to provide bedding and a food source.
Superworms are relatively easy to keep, just keep them at room temperature. Place slices of potato on the top for water.
As said before, Do NOT refrigerate the superworms. Unlike other feeder insects, refrigerating superworms does not cause a hibernation.
