Where Can I get fruit flies tomorrow?

wcumagic Sep 25, 2003 11:34 PM

I'm leanin toward agreeing with ya'll that those crickets are too big, but I dont want to let the wee frogs get too hungry. I guess I'll get up early tomorrow and crawl around outside looking for little food. Does anyone know of a good place to get a fly culture that might ship quickly? Maybe overnight or close to the mountains of NC?

ed meat fly will overnight and a few other places. Check the ads on here like fly culture or something like that. I know some petco sells them. It is a little more pricey but i bought from there a few times when i first got start in the hobby and my culture kept crashing. You dont get much but you can buy two and use one to start a new culture. They are around $5 each.

you can get small crickets and fruitflies as well from reptilefood.com. they ship overnight to most areas, just check out the site. petco cultures are fine in a pinch, but you should just get medium and culturing supllies to start your own up. edsflymeatinc.com has good medium and a lot of the other things you'll need to to get started.

You will also need culturing materials, and mason jars to make culturs in. Have to keep the food going, those little guys can eat a lot.
