Hey everyone

Hey, this is Michael from Mississippi. I recently have become obsessed with beetles which seems to have branched of from trying to build robots similar in appearance.

I am hoping to be able to start breeding beetles and documenting the difference within a single species through the generations.

I am wanting to stick to US beetles since I heard its hard to import insects.

Any advise for rearing Strategus aloeus & anteous, Megasoma elephas (unsure if this is found in US) , and Dynastus tityus

 
Welcome aboard! Your answers are in your other thread but I don't think anyone mentioned Xyloryctes, that is the easiest rhino to find in many areas.

 
Thanks, I am new to this. Thanks for adding another species to my list. I have gotten comfirmaton that D. tityus and S. aloeus in decent numbers at my grandfather's house he live in wooded area mainly oaks. Maybe I can find he one you mentioned as well.

Is the main difference between female xyloryctes jamaicensis and strategus aloeus going to be the size, forgive if there is a color difference as I can not see red.
