Scarabaeus sacer

Egyptian Dung Beetles which literally eat poo.

Having spoken to someone who’s conducted scientific study into what kinds of poo they like / don’t like it turns out Porcupine (not so handy) or Goat (a bit more handy) are the types to offer.

In theory they prefer poo from animals who have a high hay and grass diet as opposed to Pellet-fed and definately prefer pet poo than farm animal.

Poo aside this is probably the only animal we stock mentioned in the Egyptian book of the dead.

A fairly deep arid substrate is required for these as the beetles will (having rolled the poo into a ball) then attempt to bury it and eat it alone over a few days, females also will dig tunnels when ready to breed.
