Cotinis mutabilis

[Scarabs]

How do you keep cotinis mutabilis larvae I caught a female cotinis mutabilis few weeks ago. And I guess it mated before it was In my care and now I have a few eggs.

Care is similar to C. nitida, just get some soil (topsoil, sand, FS, they will basically eat anything)

Would it be ok if I kept them in organic compost with leaf litter?

 

[BensBeasts1]

Yep!

My cotinis mutabilis eggs started hatching today!

Try and separate them as they do cannibalize easily.
