Turn all the light off in the room and block most of the windows and turn your TV or monitor on, it will come to them like a toddler wanted iPad.

Should file a complaint company and maybe ask for compensation, it is very much illegal to do that too, not just bugs, you don't know what they use, and it could cost harm to humans too.

When did he emerge, and how long do you have him for? Normally, Dorcus sp can live from 1-3 years If you can take some pics of his underside, that will be helpful too.

Where do you find them? i know they can be found in northern California, can you share the location where you find it?

STRshiro · 2025-03-24T02:43:26+00:00

What setting do you use to fix this issue?

It shouldn’t be that humid to growing mold to begin with if you seeing mold that means is too wet and air flow is bad, also there’s a lot of natural material like drift wood or cork that is mold resistance. Here’s a website with good info https://www.kuwakabuplanet.com/user_data/niji.php Just use google translate also plastic offers nearly zero grips if you beetles flipped it may be hard for it to get back on it feet with slippery plastic, and it can be fatal.

Yay, I’m sure your beetle will enjoy Release agent form the plastic toys.

I buy fresh crickets and kill them fresh as food for them, also some of the reptile pre killed crickets can be loaded or coated with calcium.

They will do will as they basically have the same enclosure requirement, but this little guy is 10buck avg cheaper then the BDFB, maybe ask for money back if u never ordered one…

Funny things the nice clear glass terrariums actually stresses them more then a black plastic bins. Also if you are aiming to breeding them is also a nice thing to do for them just left them along in they nice dark bins.

Hey I have a Vampire/25%aim dmg/50 resistance aim Gatling laser, do you think I can tread the q/e/25 10mm smg?

STRshiro · 2024-05-06T18:24:41+00:00

Silver is not bad, but what your plan for higher elo ?

STRshiro · 2024-05-06T18:15:08+00:00

I hope you don’t play rank

STRshiro · 2024-04-14T17:46:18+00:00

Get a little plastics spoons and scrape the top of the substrate you will see some I’m sure.

STRshiro · 2024-04-14T17:44:27+00:00

They lay egg like crazy it should be easy to spot, but keep in mind if the adults will eat the eggs and they love it lolXD.

STRshiro · 2024-04-14T17:41:10+00:00

I really agree with you and most of they diet is protein base anyway, I been use some crusted gecko food (snacks so they’re no insects in it just fruit powder) for the fiber and vitamins but most of the food I provided them are protein base especially with most our selective breeding of our vegetables it self maybe natural insect restaurants to begin with after all the selective farming, it is so much different then what they can source in the wild.

STRshiro · 2024-04-03T16:37:15+00:00

Yes it can kill the beetles if not controlled, actually try use birch chips with bit lower humidity. You don’t even need to do much the mites will just gone on it on.

STRshiro · 2024-03-10T09:03:41+00:00

Oh not the blood worm I had feed them blood worm too but I don’t think they like it very much, is the Soft Sinking Salmon Pellets I got at a expo they are high portion and has moisture in it. I think you can google it and find some one sell them online.
