Rearing containers for stag beetle larvae with Kinshi

The use of standardized substrates zu rear larvae of lucanid beetles like Lucanus, Dorcus or Prosopocoilus calls for a substrate named "Kinshi" in Japan. It is nothing else than artifical white rotten wood. The recipe you can get for free and open source in my channel. Here I show you how to compose 500ml plastic containers with Kinshi.

Is it just stag beetles you can rear this way?

My rhino beetle gave birth. Is it safe to keep the larvae in the same substrate as the parents?
