Beetle Food

I know that most of you feed your beetles beetle jelly, but isn't it bad for them?

I prefer fruits or Saps from trees, because beetle jellies are artifical... or am i wrong..

Even though they are artificially made, they are made out of organic substance. So beetle jellies aren't harmful to beetles. They are also nutritional.

In my experience, beetle jellies were much better than fruits.

are there different type of jellies that's only for beetles?
All of them are for beetles. If you look at the package where they are in, the package usually says that the jellies are for beetles not for humans.

Depending on the types of jellies, the nutritions in them varies.

I love beetle jelly but don't have any right now. If it's expensive for you... don't fret it. If it's cheap to ya... go get it!

It's actually pretty natural. Also, made for beetles. I do have a confession, though. I ate beetle jelly once... and I liked it... XD. I know this can and will be used against me.

Beetle jellies can be safely consumed by humans and other animals. (Or so I've heard.) They are seen as healthier than regular jelly because there is less sugar/trash in them.

 
50:50 ratio of 100% organic maple syrup to water (I've used distilled, but tap water seems to be totally fine as well).

 
I recently made a large tub of Beetle Jelly from a recipe that I saw. It has acorn gel in it as well as a whole tangerine, brown sugar, rice vinegar, corn syrup, and a little honey. The beetles seem to love it and stay in it for hours at a time. It helps hydrate them. It is gelatinized by the use of gelatin.
