CB - Dynastes hercules hercules - Adult trio

Adult Herculese Beetles are rarely seen available in the UK so we are delighted to finally have some in stock! 
The development time for these incredible creatures can be anywhere from 2-3 years which is why they come with such a hefty price tag. The pairs available all have males that are between 13 - 14cm and the femals are also big and chunky.
 
Adults feed on a combination of ripe fruit and jelly pots
Larvae will feed happily ondecayed Leaf mulch, but in order to achieve the maximum weight it is recommended to feed larvae on flake soil, a fermented substrate with more nutrients. 
Egg to adult - 24- 36 months 
The lifetime of the adults is much harder to predict but in our experince they usually live anywhere from 6-10 months.
