Overton, you are so funny!! LOL!!
I read the "boring" care sheet...I only see a couple potential problems with it.
With mealworms, it's best not to give them so much moisture. Excessive moisture attracts book mites. I give mine a piece of potato or carrot a week and no more.
The other "problem" is that it seems she keeps everything in one container. You'll need at least 3.
I use one of those plastic 3 drawer organizers...One drawer for feeding out of, one drawer for letting the mealies grow and another draw for the pupaes. What happens is, the mealies pupate and I toss them in a drawer with fresh food-bedding. They pupate into beetles, mate and lay eggs. But, once I start seeing teeny tiny mealworms in there, it's time to pull all the beetles and pupae out and move them to a new fresh drawer (as I'm always continually throwing pupae in). This way, the teeny tiny mealies are left to grow to a usable size. If you leave them all in one container, the beetles will eat the babies, you wont be able to keep enough mealworms that they'll pupate, etc. Does this make sense? LOL! I'll reexplain if it doesn't.
