Dung Beetles?

[Kahzel]

Has anyone found any? If so, how do i find them? I read on the wiki you can find them rolling the snowballs, does that mean if i built my Snowman they won't appear for the day?

They show up 5pm - 8am pushing snowballs only. If you have already built your snowman for the day, they won't appear again until tomorrow.

Oh, i see...

Well, snowdad will have to wait tomorrow then.

How long does the snow last? Until what month? Because I want all my snowpeople first THEN I'll catch a beetle.

December - February (might not last thru the end of the month). It's easy enough to catch one, as long as you play at some point 5pm - 8am. Wait until a snowball is rolling around, sneak up on it with your net and swing at the ball. Done.

Make sure you can see the bug when you swing

Just caught mine! Then I rolled a snowmam. . Pretty easy, they are not that fast

Do you need for the snowball to be rolled up or at normal size?

 

[Rio_]

it can be both

 

[Boidoh]

Do you need to leave and comeback for one to appear?

I think so? You don't have to walk very far though, I kept catching them while rolling my second snowball nearby X(

Will the Dung Beetle be rolling it? So that would means it can break right? Do I look around for a moving snowball or just re enter the area because he broke it?

AFAIK you have to go inside a building and then out to "reload" a snowball (might also work if you go far enough away, but it's easier to enter a house). It doesn't have to be so difficult, though. Just roll a snowball to the nearest house and keep entering/exiting until there's a dung beetle. Though I guess the snowball can't be too close to the house, or you'll scare it away.

Finally caught one. It looks so cute rolling the snowball.
