    I don't know if you can buy them but you should not release any beetle other than our native Geotrupes stercorosus as anything else would be illegal as an alien species. I would question the need to introduce them. If the farm could support them there is no reason to assume they are not there already. If they are not present you would need to ask yourself why not.

    Are they the only native species?
