Last Wednesday I received my order of 2 thousand mealies and only notice 2-3 dead ones as I was putting them in the bin. For the past few days I've been finding a dozen or so dead. I keep my mealworm colony in a sterlite 3-drawer tier thing and have 6 holes on the sides of the drawer the worms are in. I'm not doing anything differently than before. They have a constant supply of greens and two large carrots. I haven't noticed any condensation or mold in the bin but I'll be replacing the bedding today. The temperatures for my area have not gotten too cold yet. The lowest it's been at night in the past week or so was in the high 50s before they even arrived. Any idea of what could be causing the die offs? Or is just par for the course on an order that large?
