As far as mealworms, I have fostered Stars and Gouldians without them. I prefer not to deal with mealworms if I don't have to. However, my Societies are now fostering BCCB and Strawberry babies, which need the extra protein they get from insects, so the Societies have a dish of mealworms at all times, and they are thoroughly enjoying them. In my post about BCCB & Strawberry fledglings, you can see crops chock full of seeds, but I'm sure they are getting plenty of worms, too.
