10000 Mealworms VS Watermelon Strawberry and Bread - Time Lapse [4K]

This time I fed my mealworms some slices of watermelon, slices of bread and a couple of strawberries.
Strangely the worms finished the bread the fastest, and even though they started to eat the watermelon and the strawberries at a quick pace they eventually slowed down.

Some info about mealworms:
Mealworms are the larval form of the mealworm beetle, Tenebrio molitor, a species of darkling beetle. Like all holometabolic insects, they go through four life stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Larvae typically measure about 2.5 cm or more, whereas adults are generally between 1.25 and 1.8 cm in length.

Burrowing and eating are a top priority when it comes to being a mealworm, and they will eat just about anything. They will eat grains, vegetables, any organic material, fresh or decaying. This plays a huge role in the ecosystem. Mealworms aid in the decomposition of any spoiled organic material.

Mealworm fun fact:
Mealworms are not worms. They do look wormish, but they are insects. :)

What else should I feed to my mealworms? Just let me know

[mrmadamhy]

I'm sure that's exactly what the musicians were envisioning when they were vibing out to their mellow jazz

[AngelosGallery]

Feeding your pets???? Nice!!!! Do you know all their names? One by one?

[kingCrow]

Imagine how terrifying mealworms would be if they actually ate this fast

[Thesouthwillriseagain]

I like how they started to pass the bread around lol

[fiddlersgreen]

3:11 they all just laying around hella fat thinking "damn that was good"

[marias]

These videos just make me feel really happy for the worms, they seem to have a great time

[huang]

I feel bad for the mealworms that didn’t get any

[Ujuani]

Regular me: Why am I watching this?
Biologist me: Let's go.

[daemonlynn]

Bruh the guys on the wall said "AYE YO, pass that bread please!"

[GamingStar]

This is what true decomposition looks like.

[woollyskully]

Haha the bread is like its at a concert throwing itself onto the crowd being passed around.

[MrDrokkul]

The bread...it's like the grossest crowd surfing that I could ever imagine.

[bleh]

These guys aren't good at social distancing.

What I've learned from this channel: Mealworms will eat ANYTHING

[imboredsowat]

There goes YouTube again recommending me stuff I didn’t asked for, but im still gonna watch

[calacestar]

I don't mean to flex, but I'd devour those watermelon *pieces* within a minute, easy 👌🏼

[JunaidWolf]

So I’m guessing u r going to throw them into the deep fryer as a little midnight snack

[rainbowshivlers]

my mom had to stop letting us bring mealworms home from school because i kept leaving the containers slightly open and they’d escape lol we kept finding the adult beetles just chilling out around the house

Amazing video! Could you feed them a a jello cube. Something like 4" or even 6" cube. Large enough, so the cube stands above the mealworm 'pit'. It would be interesting to see how they consume it, and if any tunneling occurs.
