What should I feed my mealworms?

Mealworms will eat a variety of fresh vegetables including leftovers such as cabbage and carrots. Mealworm food and bug gel can also be offered, but do not use water as they may drown.

Why feed live mealworms to wild birds rather than dried mealworms?

Live mealworms offer a higher nutritional value than dried mealworms, are easier to digest, and offer a source of hydration. It also gives birds a more stimulating experience which can promote better physical and mental health.

What temperature should I store mealworms?

If you're looking for low maintenance then keep your mealworms refrigerated. This will slow their metabolism and keep their weight up without the need for feeding. If you want to gut load your mealworms before feeding, then keep at room temperature.
