Day 16 - First Pupae Discovered

This morning i checked on my 6 Super Morio Worms in my airing cupboard and discovered that one of them had fully pupated:-


5p coin added for size reference

The first thing that strikes you is the size of the pupae, if you are used to seeing meal worm pupae, you`ll not believe the shear size of these morio worm pupae. The other 5 are curled up still and are still alive but they are not ready to make the change just yet.

Ive removed this pupae and placed it into a larger tub, ive come across 3 more tubs in my house that i can use, so this afternoon i have added another 3 morio worms to bring my colony upto 9 for now..

Next update coming soon...
