That is an absolutely incredible pupa. What species is it exactly? How long have you been caring for it and where did you get it originally? When do you expect the beetle to emerge? I am new to this and don't actually have any beetles yet.

It is called OX beetle. Scientific name is Strategus aloeus. I can't remeber how long I've been keeping this one but it took me about a year and half for him to become like this from an egg. He is an offspring of a pair I got from an Arizona collector.
