For international customers, please READ the T&C specified at the bottom.+These larvae are being sold as live-food for pets to comply with eBay's policies.+The listing is for 1 each, L3 larvae (Random sexed).+These are captive bred in my collection, originally originating from Indonesia.
Introduce Beetle Chalcosoma caucasus males can reach a length of 90–130 millimetres (3.5�...�5.1 in), while females grow to 50-60mm. Caucasus beetles are the largest of the genus Chalcosoma and one of Asia's largest beetles. They have a striking sexual dimorphism. The males have specialised enormous, curved horns on the head and thorax that they use to fight with each other to gain mating rights with females. Females are significantly smaller. The elytra of the females have a velvety texture, as they are covered by tiny hairs. When males enter into contests for females the fighting spirit is as strong as in Hercules Beetle of South America. Because they can be captured throughout the year the acquisition of these beetles is easy and the price is quite low. Caucasus beetles differ from chalcosoma atlas beetles (for which they are often mistaken) in that they have a small tooth on their lower horns. Their grubs go through 3 stages, l1, l2, and l3. The l1 has a skull diameter of 2mm, l2 has a 7mm skull, and the largest (l3) can have a skull diameter of 13 mm. Their grubs generally live underground for 12–15 months; the larger males remain grubs longer than females . Their pupae live 1–2 months, while the adults live for 3–5 months. Females live longer than males.
The adult beetles feed on a variety of fruits such as banana, apple, pear, peach and watermelon. The larvae feed on decaying wood (preferably oak, beech and chestnut but not necessary).
