I don't think you need to force them to eat dried mealworms if they don't like them, they are mostly a fatty treat. I won't wait a year, just once in a while (maybe once a week or month) offer them a mealworm. You can buy a large tub not to expensive online, or a bag of mealworms for birds at walmart for 5 dollars if they started eating them. But whatever treat they like is the one I'd use for bonding, dried papaya, yogurt drops etc.
I have read the hpw, either critterlove or wombaroo has all the nutrients they need.
