Fruit Flies (Flightless)

Flightless fruit flies offer a superb food source for a huge variety of both reptiles and amphibians that require small prey insects.

Our fruit fly cultures contain 50 to 100 adult flies and continue to produce for about 6 weeks. We offer Drosophila melanogaster which is about the size of a pinhead and Drosophila hydei sturdivant which is about 1/8 inch in size.

Our complete fruit fly culture kit includes 6 complete culture jars and 2 cultures of adult fruit flies. The culture kit can produce up to 10,000 flies.
