    superworm - when to pupate?

    I have recently acquired some zophobas "worms" and would like to try to breed this insect. I know that the "worm" has to be isolated to pupate. But how to know it's the right time for that, are there any indicators (color, behavior etc.) suggesting that the "worm" is ready to pupate?
