## Description

OUNG CULTURE not ready to be immediately fed out. Ideal food source for poison dart frogs and other small insectivores

Review: so many bugs - lots of bugs , everything was in good shape.
Review: Disappointed in quality, culture full of mites. - Delivered to wrong address but found it. There are very few live fruit flies in culture and very few eggs/pupae. Poorly packed with no padding and no way to keep fruit flies warm on their trip cross country. No markings on box that say it’s live animals or fragile so the contents of culture rolled around in cup and crushed a lot of the fruit flies. Won’t be sourcing my fruit flies from here again. Quality not worth price or wait. Hoping I will be able to collect enough live fruit flies to start a new culture as media looks old and pretty dry, but there are so few I don’t think I will be able to. I really wanted this to work because it’s so easy to order through desertcart. Back a week later, it is beginning to produce, but is completely infested with grain mites, to the point where I’m probably just dumping it and the two cultures I tried to start with it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No Flies in Culture but give it time!
*by M***. on August 17, 2023*

The delivery date kept changing but I was okay with that. However when culture arrived there were no flies in it. I did find some larva so hopeful that I will see some flies soon. Will update my review on what happens. 8/28/23 Update: Do not throw your culture away if you do not see flies! As started above mine did not have live flies but was full of Larva. I placed it in the container i use for incubating my cultures for a few days and there was an explosion of flies! There were tons of flies and I am still having eggs laid, larva hatching and flies hatching. Very impressed now with it and will buy from seller again!
