--------------------------------------------------------------



Terms & Conditions:

Minimum order $8, not including shipping. USA (lower 48) shipping only. Paypal only. I ship via USPS Priority Mail, shipping normally costs $8, however if your order is especially large it may be $15. I do not ship via USPS express at this moment, so please don't ask.

Due to negative experiences with USPS wildly mishandling packages that are held for pickup, we no longer will mark packages HOLD FOR PICKUP. If your temps are too extreme, or you won't be able to accept delivery at home, or if you have some other reason for not being able to have the invertebrates shipped to your door, then I strongly advise you don't order.

I ship out on Tuesdays for all payments and mailing addresses received by Sunday evening. (So if you place an order on Monday, it will not be shipped out until Tuesday of the FOLLOWING week).

I am not responsible for any deaths due to mishandling, acts of God and extreme temperatures. If your local temperatures are in the 90's or above or the 40's and below, order at your own risk!

If, for some reason the invertebrates arrive dead, and they were shipped during weather I suggested should be fine, please send a photo of the dead invertebrates in question within 24 HOURS of arrival, and we can work on a replacement shipment or partial refund. If no proof in the form of a photo or a video is supplied, I will not take any responsibility for DOAs.

PM me to order, or if you have any questions regarding husbandry.

Wow, I didn't realize how valuable Meracantha contracta were.
I'm the only person breeding them I believe, and sourcing WC individuals in the first place is VERY difficult, since they are rather uncommon. Hence the high price for CB larvae.

Do you have any adults for sale and I'm really interested in Merecantha Contracta

No, I typically keep adults myself for breeding, and raise the larvae as I need them, (it's way too much work to isolate EVERY larva I get, I don't have that much room!).

Also, I'm having trouble getting my Merecantha to mature, so I'm not selling them anymore until I can work out their pupation needs, (they may need a winter diapause). And the adults of that species are very fragile, would never ship them.

Do you have any darkling beetles that you want to sell
I'll likely have at least a couple species available, but we'll see. Won't be able to ship until mid March at the earliest, and it's possible that me and my family will be moving soon, so that'll delay my ability to ship as well... :/
