The larvae are very near the pupation stage!! I have ordered the incubator.

I love that you're working on this project and I'm replicating your method as closely as I can. It's very helpful and informative. Good luck and thanks for keeping us posted!

Into the incubator!

Into the incubator!

Looking forward to the result, hopefully this should lead to more darkling beetle species being bred! Best of luck!

Great to see others following up on this process. Best wishes on getting pupae in the next couple of months!

Ive not had much success so far in getting larvae to grow. How do you prevent the carrot and cat biscuits from going mouldy in the delicups? I have had a few get to mini mealworm size but they seem to die off. When they get to pupation size, how do they compare in size to a morio worm?

I am pleased to announce that my first adult beetle has emerged!
