They won’t eat the whole thing, but they need it to grow big. Make sure you feed them a slice of potato/carrot.

When you shift the beetles to a new container, let the worms develop in that old container.

The time that you MUST shift the beetles is after about 4-5 months, hence the reason for having a few big containers.

Continue feeding the beetles (The worms would eat the food as well.) You can either shift the beetles to the next container, or leave them inside for a little longer. Those worms are the works that have hatched from the eggs.

After about 1-2 months, you should be able to see EXTREMELY tiny worms of about less than 1cm long in the container.

Feed them everyday, or once every 2 days with potato/carrot slices.

Take out the beetles and put them into the container.

Once the oats have cooled down, fill one of the big containers with 1-inch of oats.

Get some oats and heat them up in a microwave or oven (They don’t have to be cooked, just heated to make sure that no mites would exist).

Some would naturally die during pupa stage, so if you get dead pupae, don’t worry.

Leave them for abt 3-5 months (You can actually check on them everyday, just make sure it’s dark).

Leave them in a dark place (Cupboard, or a shoebox).Separate those that are of that size into small containers (1 per container).Get some superworms, and find those that are 2 inches (5.1 cm) long.Small Container Dimensions: Big enough to hold 1 fully-grown superworm

Materials Needed: Tweezers, A few containers, a LOT of oats (or whatever bedding material you use), and potatoes/carrots, Small Containersīig Container Dimensions: As long as the container is about 2-3 inches and not too small.
