Maybe they are there and just really small. Dont loose hope. Maybe try adding a piece of bark for them to lay eggs on. Eggs will be really visible on the dark bark.

what are your temps? I really dont have a problem I just wait a few weeks and you began to see tiny worms towards the bottom of the container. +

it stays around 70f-75f. and also is it normal for the weeker bettles to get eaten by others
