Really great beetle.

Every time I buy from minibeast I’m so impressed with the quality. This beetle is really nice and is one of my favourites. Would highly recommend this beetle which looks great alongside the other Goliath beetles in my collection.

Hebomoia glaucippe
Great Orange Tip Butterfly
Great Orange Tip Butterfly In Box Frame (Hebomoia glaucippe)

Great Orange Tip Butterfly

I wasn’t expecting to see such a vibrant orange on the tips of the wings when I received the frame. Nonetheless, it’s so interesting to observe the natural variation in colouration of these beautiful specimens.
I adore this frame, it’s one of my favourites. I get the pleasure of admiring it whenever I wake up and go to sleep, as it’s displayed right beside my bed.

Awesome!

I love the wide range of entomology frames Minibeast sells, but reptiles are my real love. They are my special interest so I was super excited when I saw they had a few frames available. I love this one so much and hope they add more reptiles in the future. :)

Argema mimosae
African Moon Moth
African Moon Moth In Box Frame (Argema mimosae)

Every Detail Perfect, Stunning Specimen

For such a delicate specimen, everything arrived in perfect condition, including the antennae! Not that I expected any different from Minibeast, as all specimens I've received have been of fantastic quality.

The sheer variety of moon moths they have on here is mind boggling and all equally impressive, with the only reason that I went for the African species being that I have seen them before in the wild.

If you are in any doubt about the quality of the service, you can put that to the back of your mind and worry more about a growing collection of insects that may preoccupy your time.

Double Madagascan Sunset Moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus)

Perfect Centrepiece of Tessellation

I think the ventral and dorsal colours on this moth are stunning and it has made for an impressive centrepiece of a wall tessellation.

As always, presentation is flawless within the frame and the frame itself, and delivery was as quick as anyone could hope for a bespoke item.

I truly recommend this specimen and have not received any so far that have not exceeded my expectations.

Well done Minibeast team!

Papilio pericles
Tropical Swallowtail
Tropical Swallowtail In Box Frame (Papilio pericles)

Tropical Swallowtail (Papilio Pericles)

I purchased this Tropical Swallowtail (Papilio Pericles) as a gift and I am very pleased with its presentation. It captures the light with a radiant shimmer and is just beautiful to look at from all angles. There was some blue dust-like shedding on the inner glass during shipping, but it was easily tidied up with some careful use of compressed air. Considering this sturdily mounted specimen came all the way to Canada, I take that as win!

Menelaus Blue Morpho Butterfly In Box Frame (Morpho menelaus)

Absolutely stunning!

Come across mini beast.co on a Facebook add and I'm usually very sceptical with anything advertised on Facebook, done some research and couldn't really find much out about the company in respect of 3rd party review sites such as
trust pilot which I usually base my trust in a company on, but I I was soo in love with what I was seeing I thought I'd give it ago and if I got scammed then it's a learning curve bit I'm very glad I took the jump, it's everything it says on the tin and more, to minibeast.co I'd highly recommend you put yourself out there on trust pilot so we can also leave reviews on there :)
