charx53 Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Does anyone know how much they weigh in L3 before they begin to pupate? How much is temperature relative to them pupating? I don't want to disturb them, by checking substrate etc., if they are beginning to make pupal cells. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pewrune Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 it depends. a XL male can go over 45g a small male could be 15g From egg to adult is about 10 months. if the temperature is lower it may take longer. what's your origin of Allomyrina dichotoma? Japan? Taiwan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pewrune Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 In Taiwan they are usually found in mountains below1500 meters so they definitely don't like weather that's too cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
