In this video, we're going to show you how you can breed mealworms the easiest way possible.

在本視頻中，我們將向您展示如何用最簡單的方法養殖黃粉蟲。

I'm going to show you a mealworm enclosure of a full set up, super easy to make, and how I've not maintained it in one year.

我將向大家展示一個黃粉蟲圍欄的全套設備，製作起來超級簡單，而且我已經一年沒有維護它了。

One whole year, no maintenance at all, no sifting, no shaking, no nothing, and this is how we do it.

整整一年，完全不需要維護，不需要篩選，不需要搖晃，什麼都不需要，我們就是這樣做的。

So about a year ago, we actually did do a full massive series on how to breed your own live food, whether it be Dubia roaches, superworms, mealworms, we've done it all, but I feel my mealworm content isn't as good as my content now, so I've tried to revisit it.

是以，大約一年前，我們實際上做了一個完整的大型系列，介紹如何養殖自己的活體食物，無論是杜比亞蟑螂、超級蚯蚓還是黃粉蟲，我們都做過，但我覺得我的黃粉蟲內容不如現在的內容好，所以我試著重溫一下。

Way back then, a year ago, I decided to think, well what would happen if you didn't maintain it for a year?

早在一年前，我就決定想一想，如果你一年都不保養它會怎麼樣？

However, if you want really good production from your mealworm farm, this is not the way to go.

但是，如果您想讓您的黃粉蟲養殖場真正實現高產，就不能這樣做了。

This isn't as productive as some of the other methods where they've got the grid underneath the boxes, and we've done loads of videos on them in the past.

這不像其他一些在方框下方設置網格的方法那樣富有成效，我們過去曾製作過大量關於這些方法的視頻。

If you want to see a video on how to breed live food, a full playlist on all the different live food techniques, you're bound to find something that you're going to appreciate.

如果你想看關於如何飼養活食的視頻、關於各種活食技術的完整播放列表，你一定能找到自己喜歡的內容。

I'll leave a link just up there, but this is my mealworm farm.

我會在上面留一個鏈接，但這是我的黃粉蟲農場。

It can often be seen just sat up here on top of my Dubia roach breeding colony, solely for the sole purpose of, it's out the way and it fits on top of that box.

經常可以看到它就坐在我的杜比亞蟑螂繁殖地的上面，唯一的目的就是，它不礙事，而且可以放在那個盒子上面。

There's no added heat, there's absolutely nothing special with that breeding farm, except for it's just full of crap and it works.

沒有額外的熱量，那個繁殖場也沒有什麼特別之處，除了滿是垃圾，而且還能用。

What we did a year ago, we've got this total, no lid, nothing.

我們一年前所做的一切，現在都成了現實，沒有蓋子，什麼都沒有。

These beetles can't climb, so you don't need to worry about that.

這些甲蟲不會爬，所以你不用擔心。

We literally filled it up to about here with porridge oats.

We've got two tubs of mealworms just like this.

We got them from the livefoodhub.co.uk, I'll leave their links in the description down below.

我們從 livefoodhub.co.uk 買的，我會在下面的描述中留下鏈接。

I got them from them because you do tend to get a little bit more in their packages.

我從他們那裡買的，因為他們的套餐往往會多一點。

The animals are just straight from the breeder, so they're already gut loaded, they're ready to go.

這些動物都是直接從飼養者那裡買來的，所以它們的內臟已經裝滿，隨時可以出發。

I'll leave their links in the description down below.

我會在下面的說明中留下他們的鏈接。

I poured these two tubs into this main tub of just porridge oats.

我把這兩桶燕麥倒進了這桶燕麥粥裡。

That's all that was in there, just porridge oats.

This is where it got quite lazy because I just added in some toilet roll inserts.

這就是我偷懶的地方，因為我只是加了一些衛生捲紙。

Do you know when you go to McDonald's, you get a couple of coffees?

你知道當你去麥當勞時，你會得到幾杯咖啡嗎？

Word of warning, if you do do it this way, it does get very, very dusty.

需要提醒您的是，如果這樣做，灰塵會非常非常多。

If you've done a lot of research on mealworms in the past, you will know the dust here can cause allergenic, is that a word, allergenics?

如果你過去對黃粉蟲做過很多研究，你就會知道這裡的灰塵會引起過敏，這是個詞嗎，過敏？

Allergenic sort of reactions to your body.

You're going to end up with big eyes and streaming nose, and you're just going to end up with like an allergic reaction to the frazz.

最後，你會大眼瞪小眼，鼻涕橫流，最後就會對這些東西產生過敏反應。

So if you've got a face mask or anything like that to block the dust getting into you, use it.

所以，如果你有口罩或類似的東西來阻擋灰塵進入你的身體，那就用它吧。

We've all got face masks this day and age with COVID, so it does work.

如今，我們都用 COVID 做面膜，所以它確實有效。

What they basically did, they lived inside the porridge oats, and then they ate the porridge oats as well.

它們基本上是住在燕麥粥裡，然後也吃燕麥粥。

But Richard, how did you give them a moisture source?

但是理查德，你是怎麼給它們提供水源的？

Every now and then, if I was feeding Diego, my bearded dragon, some salad, and I had a little bit left over, I'd chuck it in with these or in with the dubia roaches.

每隔一段時間，如果我在給我的鬍鬚龍迭戈喂沙拉時剩下一點，我就會把它和這些沙拉或杜比蟑螂放在一起。

If I fed my big morning gecko breeding colony some pangea, along with the babies and the Chinese house gecko, if I fed them some sort of pangea or crested gecko diet and had a little bit left over, I'd just chuck it in with these.

如果我給我的大型晨間壁虎繁殖群餵食一些潘吉亞，同時餵食小壁虎和中國壁虎，如果我給它們餵食某種潘吉亞或冠壁虎飼料，並且還有一點剩餘，我就會把它們和這些飼料混在一起。

If my lad had a banana and his banana peel, I'd chuck it in with these.

如果我的孩子有一根香蕉和他的香蕉皮，我會把它和這些一起扔進去。

There was absolutely no maintenance at all.

I just left it in there as more of a recycle sort of bin.

我只是把它當作一個回收站放在那裡。

A year later, we've got loads of babies, we've got loads of pupa, we've got loads of beetles, we've got everything in here.

一年後，我們有了大量的幼蟲、大量的蛹和大量的甲蟲，這裡什麼都有。

就是這樣，這是一個完整的黃粉蟲農場。

However, right now, a year later, we put two bags of porridge oats in this.

不過，一年後的今天，我們在裡面放了兩袋燕麥粥。

It is just down here now and it's all just frazz.

現在就在下面，一切都亂糟糟的。

The joy with that is the babies are actually living in there perfectly fine.

令人高興的是，寶寶們在裡面生活得非常好。

They're eating that, which is nutritionally good for the babies.

他們吃這些東西，對嬰兒的營養很有好處。

It's getting the babies to hide away from the beetles so the babies don't actually get eaten.

它讓甲蟲寶寶躲得遠遠的，這樣甲蟲寶寶就不會真的被吃掉。

The eggs are sinking to the bottom of that frazz and they're not getting eaten by any of the beetles.

蟲卵沉到了柵欄底部，沒有被任何甲蟲吃掉。

Like I did say, this is nowhere near as productive as your traditional sort of mealworm farms that you see people go way over the top for.

就像我說過的，這遠沒有傳統的黃粉蟲養殖場產量高，因為你會看到人們為了養殖黃粉蟲而不擇手段。

They do produce more than this and that's solely because the beetles in here can get to the eggs.

它們的產量確實比這多，這完全是因為這裡的甲蟲可以吃到卵。

They can get to the babies and they just can get to everything.

他們能接觸到嬰兒，也能接觸到一切。

是以，這雖然沒有那麼高的效率，但也是可行的。

If you're a busy person, if you really can't be bothered to sit there sifting through all your mealworm farms, it works.

如果你是個大忙人，如果你真的懶得坐在那裡篩選所有的黃粉蟲養殖場，它也是可行的。

So there is dead beetles in here, beetles that have come to the end of their life.

所以，這裡有死甲蟲，生命即將終結的甲蟲。

There is loads of exoskeletons, there's loads of sheds, there's loads of just crap in here.

這裡有大量的外骨骼，有大量的棚屋，還有大量的垃圾。

There's loads of little tubs from the Pangaea.

He's loving life, just plodding around, swarming with mealworms.

它熱愛生活，蹣跚地走來走去，到處都是黃粉蟲。

But like I say, there is a lot of dead beetles in here.

但正如我所說，這裡有很多甲蟲屍體。

There's a receipt there, I don't know what that's for, but that just goes to show exactly how recyclable we use this.

那裡有一張收據，我不知道那是做什麼用的，但這恰恰說明了我們使用這個東西的可回收性。

They're for the Pangaea that we use, there's another one down here.

我們用的是盤古系統，下面還有一個。

Sometimes we've got little tubs in there, that's what we use for our big morning gecko colony.

有時，我們會在裡面放一些小盆子，用來裝我們的大壁虎群。

We've just got loads and loads of stuff in here.

We even tried to put mesh in here, because there's rumour going around that mealworms actually eat plastic.

我們甚至想在這裡裝上網罩，因為有傳言說黃粉蟲真的會吃塑膠。

This is a piece of plastic and it's just something I wanted to try.

這是一塊塑膠，我只是想試試。

It made it brittle, it did make it brittle, but they've not eaten through it.

它讓它變脆了，它確實讓它變脆了，但它們並沒有吃透它。

I suppose if we leave it in there for another year, they might go through it.

我想，如果我們把它再放一年，他們可能會把它翻個底朝天。

現在，這就是留住他們的最好辦法嗎？

Let's face it, these are still animals, so you could deal with doing them a bit better.

面對現實吧，這些仍然是動物，所以你可以把它們處理得更好一些。

I wonder what it would be like to do a naturalistic set up for Dubia roaches and live food, and the production value behind that.

我在想，如果用杜比亞蟑螂和活食來做一個自然的場景，會是什麼樣子呢？

Do you know what, I'm going to stick it up there on top of this huge enclosure just here.

你知道嗎，我要把它插在這個巨大的圍欄上面。
