Also known as the crazy guy who feeds dog food to his grubs (believe it or not the worldwide beetle community thought it was a crazy idea in the mid 90s) I'm never content to stop experimenting. I tried yeast supplementation over the last year or two and the final results with Dynastes tityus...

I am looking for dead or live native dung beetles and possibly images to fill out the graphics on a guide. Many of the Onthophagus should still be active this time of year in warm areas of the US.
