What to feed the beetle, please tell me!

Child 3 years old-very interested in beetles, picks them all up. For the third day, we watched a small ground beetle with him at home-a very active beetle, chasing smaller ones, trying to bite through the nutcracker. What should I feed him? How to set up a "house"?

find nemoralis, it is a ground beetle that is easy to meet at night on the paths in the city, it can live in a cage. You can feed it like a predator with any animal food. They ate earthworms, raw fish, minced meat, and small insects.

OK, thanks for the tip, we'll try again!
Another question - which beetles are better and easier to keep at home (except cockroaches)?

1) Cockroaches are not beetles!
2) There is enough material about the content of beetles on the Internet - only Googlewink.gif :

Dmitry Sokolov, I'm just like a son, I've also been doing this since I was very young shuffle.gif

It is quite easy to keep butterfly caterpillars, bring them out (though not beetles).
And breed bedbugs (not all of them, because of the smell).
