mealworms are much simpler than supers since they don't need to be isolated to pupate and excess numbers can be refrigerated to slow their growth unlike superworms which will die if they get cold.
good luck!

Yes, you'll get mealworms you can feed much sooner than superworms.

This is not to say you shouldn't work on a superworm colony as well, because when geckos get larger, many times they'll prefer a larger feeder.

Breeding mealies is easier and less work...however, you will have a longer length of time to feed off your supers due to them less willing to pupate in colonies.
