Feeding wheat bran to mealworms and Super worms is usually better than using dry rolled oat grain. Here's why:

1. Easier to Eat

• Worms can chew and digest wheat bran more easily.

• Rolled oats are harder and not as easy for small worms to eat.

2. Less Mold

• Wheat bran stays dry and lets air flow through, so it doesn’t get moldy as easily.

• Rolled oats can hold moisture, especially when you add fruits or veggies. This can cause clumps and mold.

3. Good for Burrowing

• Worms like to dig and move around. Wheat bran is light and fluffy, so they can burrow easily.

• Rolled oats are heavier and can get packed down, which makes it harder for worms to move.

4. Easier to Clean

• Worm poop (called frass) and old skins are easy to sift out of wheat bran.

• Rolled oats don’t sift as well, so cleaning takes more time.

5. Better Nutrition

• Wheat bran has more fiber, some protein, and B vitamins. These help the worms grow and stay healthy.

• Rolled oats have more starch and less fiber, so they aren’t as good as the main food.

6. Used by Most Breeders

• People who raise worms usually use wheat bran because it works best.

• Rolled oats can be used, but they’re not as common for long-term feeding.
