Alex Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hey guys I tried signing in Beetle forum.net but never got the email.... So here are some pics of this really beautiful beetle. I caught it mid flight and at first I thought it was a moth. Husbandry advice would be great. I have a cage set up with deep substrate of 6 inches. and using mango and papaya as food source.

happy1892 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 They are very common in North Carolina. But I guess they are interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
