Neither, when it is dark out, their pupil's expand allowing more light in so they can see better in the dark. When it's in the day, they contract because there is too much light. Funny little experiment you can do is go in the bathroom turn on the light then look at your eyes in the mirror...

Mealworm beetles burry in the oatmeal right? I dont see mine anywhere so thats what i assume.

Thats how i felt. Now im mad because i dont think ill have enough to feed until i start to see mealies.

Thank you

So im not really a bug person, so give me encouraging words on beetles. I dont wanna pick them up,help me. Do they bite though?

No its alright i already got mine. But i feel like they ripped me off. Looked like i only got 300 but paid for 500.

King mealworms are given hormones that stop them from pupating, or if they do pupate they wont reproduce, Because the hormonrs messed them up internally.

Thanks for the replys. The smaller pupa has just turned into a beetle and its still brown, so I think it molted a couple hours ago. Now I have to wait for the other one to turn into a beetle. So then my colony will start to begin, if they are male and female....

But ive never had supers before?

heres a pic.

So, 3 days ago i got 500 mealies to start my colony. But a week before i found a pupa. Now today while feeding my leopard gecko, my sister picks up the repti carpet in the corner and to my suprisee i find another pupa. But this one is bigger. The smaller one is like half its size. Im confused...

Cool. Even though the petstores are overpriced, its pretty much the same price because with online you need shipping.

Wow, i woulda put a bearded dragon in that tank! Looks pretty cool though. They are the luckiest geckos ive ever seen.

Use the tops of gatorade bottles. And for babies use the top of water bottles.

Wow,never thought i would get this many voets XD I bought mealworms today, so im startin mah colony.
