Hey everyone,
12/24/2009
I'm starting to breed my own supers and mealies and I'm going to log all of the progress in a thread. There are a bunch of great "how-tos" on this forum and on youtube, but I think a detailed journal of the process start to finish will be helpful.
So I'm starting with about 30 supers to see how the initial run goes. I went to walmart and purchased jewelry bead organizers for 2 bucks each. I drilled a 3/16 hole in the top of each compartment, then placed a super in each bin. This will stress them and force them to pupate.
I have about 20 more Supers in a 3 tier bin. I'm going to keep them and feed them off. I'm using unpeeled carrots for a moisture source and old fashioned oats as substrate. I have some "worm mash" on order but the oats will do for now.
As soon as I have updates, I'll update this thread.:main_thumbsup:
