I want to share a little story about my journey of breeding beetles in the U.S. Beetles go through an incredible transformation—starting as eggs, then becoming larvae, pupae, and finally emerging as adults. This process can take anywhere from one to two years, making it a long and challenging journey. But when everything comes together, it’s one of the most rewarding experiences ever.

Raising a Prosopocoilus giraffa keisukei (PGK) over 100mm might not seem like a big deal compared to the world record of 122mm, but in the U.S., it’s a huge milestone. Unlike in Asia, where high-quality kinshi and supplies are widely available, we have to work with what we can get here. After years of careful development, experiments, and a serious investment of time and money, we were finally able to breed a 108mm PGK using only materials available in the U.S.—a major achievement.

During the larval stage, I carefully monitored its growth, feeding it a specially prepared kinshi diet to ensure it got all the necessary nutrients. I measured and recorded its weight, watching with anticipation, hoping it would grow into something amazing.

So why didn’t my 108mm PGK make it? There are many possible reasons—sometimes the pupal chamber is too small, the head gets stuck, or the wings don’t fold properly. In this case, I believe the recent move and changes in humidity disrupted its molting process, making it unable to adapt.

Lately, I’ve met so many new friends at reptile shows , and it’s been amazing to see more people getting into beetles and discovering their mysterious world. This journey is all about embracing the challenges, learning from every experience, and enjoying the ride—no matter the outcome.

Beetle Saga KINSHI is finally here ‼️🎉🎉

Many of you may have been curious as to why kinshi is never available for sale. The reason is that mass-producing kinshi has been quite challenging for us over the years.

We have dedicated considerable effort to experimenting and researching methods to increase kinshi production while ensuring the highest quality, maximum nutrition, and minimal contamination.

After a year of diligent work, we are thrilled to announce our success: we have finally achieved a milestone of producing 150 bottles simultaneously, each meeting our stringent standards for quality. 🎉🎉

*Our kinshi includes some grains to facilitate fungal growth, which poses no harm to the larvae. Over time, we plan to gradually minimize the use of grains in our production process.*
