Hey all,
My blue death feigning beetles have been getting frisky (so I now know I have at least 1 male and 1 female!)
I've read they can be very hard to rear in captivity, so I'm doubtful anything will come from it, but at least I'm reassured their enviroment is comfortable enough that they are getting in the mood.
What can I do to maximise the chance for eggs and larvae?
'Wikihow' says to bury a carrot, but I'm worried it will just rot and get the substrate wet and gross. Humidity seems to be a big no-no for these guys.
Currently they are on sand, and I'm feeding them on dog biscuits & tiny bits of apple.
