I forgot to show off my big fat beetle grub! This adorable chonker weighed in at just shy of 33g a few weeks ago. One of my 6 has already pupated so I'm looking forward to the fancy adults! Mecynorrhina torquata ugandensis.

Thank you!! It’s all fused glass methods, so all of the melting is done in a kiln. the pattern is screenprinted on with glass powder & the spider is an enamel called reusche. I’ve done lots of bug art with paper & this is a really fun new application for me! Here’s one of the old ones i’ve kept

Speaking of which, who was the celebrity whose absence was noted while attending a dinner party with his wife, and was discovered locked in an upstairs toilet deep in discussion of Ugandan affairs with the host's au pair girl? In flagrante Ugandensis, so to speak.
Who amongst us, hand on heart, could honestly swear to never having encountered Jeffrey Epstein? I fear that it might only be a matter of time before my own photo is disclosed and I might have to uproot myself and my Norwegian supermodel companions from my royal lodge and move to downtown Harlesden.

Happy eclosing day to my first Blue Uganda Flower Beetle this year (Mecynorhina torquata ugandensis "Blue"). I've never reared the blue colour ones before. And she's not very blue! 😂
Hoping that there will be a male amongst the two other cocoons. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

So two of my Mecynorrhina torquatus ugandensis have pupated (not pictured). This morning I did a check-up on the remaining grubs, and this particular big ol' grubber weighed in at just over 35g! I suspect somebody's been hitting up the shrimps.
