 To breed a beetle to a percentage of ownership you must trade a bred beetle with another player, then interbreed that beetle with your own stock.  Any beetles you breed where both the female and the male are 100% yours will create 100% owned offspring.  However, if your spouse or perhaps another player feeds your beetles, you may find your ownership percentage decreases.<br>

 Every Scarab Garden in Egypt is designed for either Rank 1, Rank 2, or Rank 3 competition.  At first, you must display your beetle in a Rank 1 garden.  Winners of a Rank 1 competition receive a certificate enabling them to enter beetles in Rank 2 competitions (they do not have to use the same beetle that won at Rank 1).  Those players who have won in a Rank 2 competition may, in turn, display beetles in the Rank 3 garden.
 If you win a Rank 3 competition, you pass the Test of Khefre's Children.

-The ranking system for beetles is actually based on the number of unique beetles that your beetle has beaten. People voting on the garden determine the placement of the beetles and points are calculated based on how many unique beetles were beaten. At level 1, you must beat 4 other beetles to place (hence 3 passes at level 1). When you enter a beetle into level 2 or 3, the number of beetles you've beaten at previous levels will count towards whether or not your beetle advances, regardless of how it places - hence is possible to have variable numbers of beetles advance in the later ranks. It is important to emphasise that it's unique beetles beaten, so if you beat beetles at level 2 that you've already beaten at level 1, they don't count towards your score.

 The wins are actually recorded on the beetle certificate you use, meaning you can enter different beetles at different levels - you're actually competing against other people's certificates, but it's easier to explain in terms of beating other beetles. So for a level 2 certificate, it has the names of all the players (not beetles) you beat in round 2, and all the players *they* beat in round 1. The total number of unique names is what matters for determining an advancement. Note that because player names are recorded, not beetle names, you can defeat a new beetle from a previously defeated player and not gain points.

 The theoretical maximum points are 7 points from rank-1, 49 points from rank-2 and 343 points from rank-3 (assuming all beetles are totally unique).
