Breeding Superworm

There are about 5 stages of superworm life cycle. Starting from superworm form-->>Pupa form-->>Beetle form-->>Eggs form-->>Baby superworm form.
Firstly, you need to have adult superworm that you can buy at any pet shop/fish shop. I buy about 100 adult superworm for starting. All the superworm must be separated hence it will eat each other if put them together. I use case that normally use to planting seed. The case have about 100 hole that i can separate my superworm from each other. After i separated them, i leave them for about 2 weeks time in order for them to evolve to pupa. Sometimes they don't take two weeks time, so within that time you need to check the superworm if they change or not. Ok, if there is any pupa form, you need to separate it to empty container. Why i separate it to empty container instead of just let it be in the hole? This is because i want to save space to put new superworm in the hole to continue the production of beetle so that superworm stock will not stop. The pupa will pupate in no time from the day it change to pupa. But usually i check every 2 days. I check frequently because the beetle need to separate to another container in order for them to be feed. Since they never eat for more than 1 month, they really starve now. Separate it and give them food for party. Ok, about the container to put the beetle, it must be put blended oat inside the container. The oat must be blend so that the beetle can plant their eggs safely from other beetle. I have tried using bedding of not blend oat and resulting lack of fry when i harvest. Maybe the beetle eat the eggs. Ok, when all the beetle moved, leave it for 4 weeks for them to plant their eggs. Within that time, check their food if sufficient or not. After 4 weeks time, move the beetle in another container that set up like the first container. Don't leave the beetle more than 4 weeks or they will eat their own eggs.There we go, almost done. The container that contain the eggs should be left for about 2 weeks to see the result. Baby superworm will come out within this time. Once they big enough to be fed, fed it with vegetables or fruit since they not choosy when it comes to food. Fed them until they big enough to be an adult superworm. The length of adult superworm is about 2". You can sell it to pet shop or use it for your own to feed your pet. I use it to fed my fish and if there is additional extra i will sell it to nearest pet shop. That is all, thank you.
