Hi all from Mexico City. I am new to the breeeding of the scarabs. I have breeded only the Tenebrio molitor as live food for a some lizards i did keeped in the past times, but i know that this is a big laugh compared to the experience of all you with the real thing!

 

Here i have a few of different species of scarabs for to choose, but the most available appear to be one species of the sun-scarab, and another species of a small nocturnal brown scarab, and the natives species of green dung-scarabs, but sorry that right now i have not pictures of them but once i have them i will upload here pictures! thanks.

Welcome to the forums. I visited Mexico City as a kid, I caught measles, was stuck in the hotel room, but I remember many, many large cocoons hanging from all the hotel patio ceilings. My parents bought me a dissecting kit, bag of marbles and squirt gun pen, I ended up dissecting many cocoons. Do you keep any beetles now?

The San Juan market sells insects and grubs to eat, I wonder what species of grubs they are, maybe you can get larva that way. The FAO claims their is 350 to 550 edible insects in Mexico. And that's just the edible ones.
