Recently got into the hobby.
I have multiple insect tattoos and eventually hope to get a complete sleeve of them, but tattoos are expensive so its a work in progress. This eventually led to someone asking if I had any of my own as they once had a tarantula. I had just never crossed my mind that this was something I could do for whatever reason. Got some darkling beetles and a week later I was already ordering more. Pretty new to it all, but already in love with it and learning all that I can. I'm sure my friends are now annoyed by all the pictures and me talking about them at this point.
So far of the species I know
5 Blue Death Feigning Beetles
1 Eleodes hispilabris
1 Zopherus Tristis (I think, best guess from bugguide)
10 Others I'm not sure of in the Eleodes genus.
