It is the natural part of the life cycle of a mealworm to pupate and turn into a beetle.
What you describe sound like pupae, and mean you are keeping your mealworms healthy enough to pupate.
If you want to prevent pupation, you can store your mealworms in the fridge insulated in bedding and covered for six to eight weeks where they will go dormant.
I'm afraid your question was cut off, but pupae are soft-shelled with a creamy middle and most birds and reptiles will LOVE eating them.
