How to Breeding Rhinoceros Beetles

Here is the guide on breeding rhinoceros beetles and setting up a breeding chamber:
Breeding Rhinoceros Beetles
Preparation:
Breeding container (a larger one is recommended)
Insect substrate (leaf litter or insect mat)
Food (fruits or insect jelly)
Pairing:
Place both male and female rhinoceros beetles in the same breeding container.
The male will approach the female and show courtship behavior.
Mating:
The male will climb onto the female's back and mating will occur.
Mating can take from a few minutes to several hours.
Setting Up the Breeding Chamber
Preparing the Egg-laying Substrate:
Place 10-15 cm of insect substrate at the bottom of the breeding container.
Ensure the substrate is moist and compacted properly.
Creating Hiding Spots:
Add dried wood and leaves to create hiding places for the beetles.
This provides a secure environment for the female to lay eggs.
Temperature and Humidity Control:
Maintain a temperature of 20-25°C (68-77°F).
Keep humidity between 60-80%. Use a misting spray to keep the substrate adequately moist.
Egg-laying Behavior:
The female will burrow into the substrate to lay eggs.
Egg-laying typically occurs at night.
Managing the Eggs:
Eggs will hatch in about 1-2 weeks.
The larvae will remain in the substrate and continue to grow.
Caring for the Larvae:
As larvae grow, they will need more space.
Regularly change the substrate to maintain a clean environment.
Following these steps will help ensure successful breeding and rearing of rhinoceros beetles. Good luck!

請問兩點鋸的產房用這種土也可以嗎，上個禮拜放產房我今天挖開沒看到蛋呢

[@BCT_BEETLE]

基礎土對兩點赤可能會太熟，AK木屑的話就沒問題，另外投產一個禮拜就挖太快了，兩點赤木屑壓實大部分會生，有丟個產木會更穩。

我養普通獨角仙.3月蛋.6月就成蛹.請問正常嗎？三齡蟲不是說就6個月！

[@BCT_BEETLE]

甲蟲成長跟溫度與季節有關，有的會為了趕上蟲季進度提前化蛹（通常是小型個體）

你曾經有養過八公分的獨角仙嗎？🧐

[@BCT_BEETLE]

有呀 8公分的大傢伙偶爾還是點得到的
