How many eggs would one expect from a female elaphus?

Received 12 Eleodes osculans from Dragozap the other day - one passed away shortly after arrival but i think this was my own doing; they were in the mailbox for perhaps a bit too long. Overall a good experience, and a worthwhile trade. 5/5 stars

I have 6 Alaus at the moment, and can easily collect more, though I am not sure how many Willing to negotiate on prices; I will trade for many different things, just ask. - Jacob

Has anyone ever bred Euphoria canescens or Euphoria fascifera? I would be interested to hear about your experiences.

Traded with @JunkaiWangisme a bit ago - another trade in progress currently. Very good service, excellent packing, and lots of free stuff. 10/10. Everything arrived alive and well.

If anyone has Euphoria fulgida larvae for sale/trade, let me know. - Jacob
