Since I'm no longer lurking, I figured I'd put up some pictures of my BDFD tank.

One happy kid.

Thanks!

Great setup!

If they have babies let me know

I know I keep saying that

I hope to get these sometime also, they are such cool little beetles. But I am not fond of the $15 price tag most people want, I like to buy about ten bugs or more at a time so I can get babies but that would be over a hundred bucks!

Thanks.

I've managed to recover 5 eggs so far. Hopefully I can avoid any major screw-ups.

Here's the forum thread about them.

Wow, that's an awesome habitat.

Thanks. As the beetles have moved about, alot of the sand has disappeared into the coco fiber/leaf compost.

It is good to see how you are rearing your Blue Death-Feigning Beetles so successfully, thank you.
