Fruit Fly Culture - Drosophila Melanogaster
Drosophila melanogaster are small, flightless fruit flies (approximately 2.5 mm in size). Although they have wings, a genetic trait prevents them from flying, making feeding easy and mess-free. Their complete life cycle averages 25–30 days.
Each culture arrives fresh and active, pre-established in a self-contained 32oz culture tub that requires no maintenance. Every culture ships with approximately 25–50 live flies, ready to use.
These fruit flies are perfectly sized for a wide range of small animals, including:
-
Poison dart (arrow) frogs
-
Small day geckos
-
Anole lizards
-
Small newts and salamanders
-
Hatchling chameleons
-
Spiderlings
-
Mantids
-
Various top-feeding fish species
