I agree! I love producing them and watching them. They are so silly and they seem to have different personalities if you watch them closely enough!

I will be doing an experiment involving fruit flies in the near future, if people are interested I will keep documenting it here.
Granted it's not ground breaking in any way.

I will keep the suspense for now.
But for all I know hundreds of people could have already done this.

I wouldn't say wrong...
But I'm reminded of the snake keeper who got too attached to the mice he raised as feeders and was soon overrun.
A certain amount of detachment isn't a bad thing.

Lol that would be me. It's why I can't keep snakes. ?

I tried that once, the mice did indeed become pets, I just rehomed them. I only ever buy live feeders for snakes when it becomes a choice of life and death for the snake.
That said, the culture materials have arrived, waiting on the rest of the supplies

Almost ready for the start of the experiment, just need to boil the water and add the "wood wool" plus flies, which will arrive tomorrow.
Im using Josh's frogs fruit fly food.
Let's put your detective skills to the test.
What can you potentially deduce from the pic, and yes I know, my notes arent scientific in the least.

On the flip side if it works out at least the lizards will get to enjoy something new.

Hint, the single letters denote the food mix being used, since that's part of the test.
The flies should arrive today barring acts of chaos.
