Hello from Mexico

Hello I have been keeping mantids the last year, but I always wanted a bettle, last week I saw one for sale here in Mexico City and I couldn´t resist to buy it, it is a Megasoma, but I´m not sure exactly the specie. Now I´m here to learn from all of you and try to breed some beetles.

There is a one liter bottle cap in the second pic.

Nice beetle! This is most likely Megasoma Elephas. It is one of my favorites. I am sure you will hear this many more times (if you haven't already), but you can give the beetles fruits to eat, like bananas.

 
Welcome Arturo!!, I´m new with beetle breeding too.

your beetle is a big male of Megasoma elephas, one of the heavyweights in beetles world.

Good luck with it!!

Arturo,

Could you please send me a private message with the location you bought the beetle from? I have family in Mexico and they would love to buy this species.

Thank you and welcome!
