After a number of months, an adult pair of Goliathus has emerged for me. The funny part is that they emerged a few weeks ago, after forming pupal cells in November 2020. That puts the total pupation time around 8-9 months, which is longer than I have heard elsewhere. The other interesting part...

While I'm far from an expert in this species, I don't see a lot on care (other than in Orin's Ultimate Guide/ Handbook) so I figured I would collect some things here. I'm using both females I bred myself and some fresh WC adults (from BIC) this year, and hope to use all CB stock next year. No...

Bred these succesfully last year, to the point I sold off a few, but lost my remaining male over the winter.  I have 3 females so could use  1-2 males, otherwise I'll wait until BIC gets them in a few months. UPDATE - I am no longer looking since BIC is back in stock

I have one (likely female) Goliathus that is wandering for a few days to the point of escaping the container before I secured it with rubber bands. 35g seems a bit small to pupate, should I move it to pupation substrate? I added food as I do like clockwork and can't tell if it was consumed, it...

Picked up a single juvenile recently, curious if anyone has any adults or juveniles for sale or trade.  I'm know some will be available in the future but thought it was worth an ask here, this forum always delivers for some reason :)

I unexpectedly had some of my phanaeus vindex emerge, which seems a bit odd to me. Would you expect beetles that emerge in the fall to be dormant until spring? These are F1 CB, I got my original adults from BIC. So I would think their timing would be natural. They seem active now, but...

Hi All, If you're currently unable to post topics, messages, etc , one solution may be to disable sounds for notifications. https://beetleforum.net/notifications/options/ and uncheck "Play a sound when notifications are received" at the bottom of the page (next to the bell icon)

I was expecting to check on my larvae this week but discovered all but 2  (5 total) have pupated (after dumping the container), so moved them to artificial pupal cells. All 5 are female, and will be emerging in a few weeks before being put into hibernation. My remaining two seem far off yet...

I have a number of extra larvae for sale. $3 each (mix and match), minimum order of 5. Strategus aloeus Chrysina woodi  Gymnetis thula  All L2-L3 Willing to trade for any uncommon or interesting display roaches, isopods, beetles, or millipedes. $15 Priority, $30 express per medium flat...

Hi All, I have a few wild collected Bess Beetle larvae currently in 8oz cups and they don't appear to like their substrate. Most are currently at the surface, and have been for a day or two. Substrate is oak flake soil (Traeger pellet) and about 20-30% the substrate I found them in...

 Hi All, Just thought I would share that I've been having success with organic raised bed soil (which includes compost, etc.). I'm using Miracle Grow brand but I'm not sure I would endorse it, it's a bit pricey and it sounds like there are issues with plastic debris in the mix. But overall it...

Due to bad luck/inexperienced keeping, I'm down to 4  (L3) larvae of this species. Would like to acquire more for a better chance of breeding. I realize this is not a very commonly kept species, but requests like this have worked for me recently.

Looking to trade the following two colonies for polyphaga or corydiid species (Therea regularis or Polyphaga aegyptiaca,), isopods, or stag/rhino beetles (Dynastes tityus, Lucanus elaphus, etc.) The two colonies are: Gromphadorhina portentosa (hybrid) - aprox. 50 individuals + at...
