Dynastes Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 P.punctata are the easiest of that group to rear and breed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Clausen Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 I've got some L3 larvae from last seasons collecting on C. beyeri. Haven't check them in a month actually...might be some pupae by now. You've got great taste in beetles! I'd be very interested to hear how you keep your Chrysina from generation to generation. Mostly, I just feel like I've been lucky. I collected A LOT of adults and got a decent number of larvae, but not as many as the number of adults would have suggested. (actually, I never counted the larvae because they are all together in a really big plastic bin) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
