I've got two cultures started with a substrate my buddy has had luck with, but I've got at least a week and a half before those start producing.
The funking culture I bought from the local pet place seems to have stopped producing, or I over feed from it (wanted my new guys to have lots of food to learn to hunt down,) and now its not putting out flys for my little guys. I'm going to place an order from Ed'sFlyMeat or some place, and I can call on my buddy for a few snacks for my guys (there is no way my little guys are going to starve!) But I'm curious: is there anything we can feed our frogs (d. auratus) that isn't living? It appears they will take nothing but living, moving, hunt-able insects.
In hind sight, it seems like starting a fruit-fly production should be *first* on the list of any wanna-be PDFer!
...and just `cause I'm proud of the picture.... here's my little guys....
