Overview

Breed Beetles with beautiful colors and patterns on their shells, and display them in sculpture gardens for others to judge.

Principles

  • Catch a Wild Beetle
  • Grow Cabbage
  • Place a Male in a Terrarium
  • Place a Female in a Terrarium
  • Breed a Beetle to 0%-50% Ownership
  • Breed a Beetle to 51%-75% Ownership
  • Breed a Beetle to 76%-89% Ownership
  • Breed a Beetle to 90%-99% Ownership
  • Rename a bred beetle
  • Vote on a Garden
  • Mix any Reddish Paint (Any paint color that has "Red" in the name)
  • Mix any Yellowish Paint (Any paint color that has "Yellow" in the name)
  • Exhibit a Beetle in a Garden
  • Build Khefre's Locker

For the paint, you only need to take the paint from a pigment lab; you can get someone else to mix the right colours first. (Please verify (Cinnamon): we added an ingredient before taking, but I suspect that it wasnt needed.)

Demonstrate the Principle

Demonstrated by Orrin in Meroe on 2009-01-09.

Beetle Breeding

Legacy Beetle Breeding Guide full of useful if slightly dated stuff.

To breed a beetle to a % ownership you must trade a bred beetle with someone and then interbreed that beetle with your own stock.

Any beetles you breed where both Female and Male are 100% yours will create a 100% yours sub beetle

Beetle Showing and Judging

To build a Statue of a beetle in a Beetle Garden you need:

  • 2 Mud Granite
  • 2 Small Ruby
  • 10 Concrete
  • 20 Clay
  • 12 Gold Wire
  • 5 Paint of each of two colors.
    • To find the required paints, display the beetle on your terrarium, and use the "Special" command.
    • It is possible for them to be the same color, and it's common for them to not really be the colors you think your beetle is.

NOTES:

  • You must have your beetle in your inventory to build.
  • For Level 2 and 3, you must have your Certificate from the previous level in your inventory.
