Fruit Fly Feast — FAQs
Is this for both melanogaster and hydei?
Yes — we use it for both species with excellent consistency.
How thick should the mix be?
Think “thick porridge”. Too runny invites issues; too dry stalls production.
Do I still need to add yeast on top?
Yes. A light sprinkle on the surface helps kickstart the culture.
What size should I buy?
200 g is ideal for small batches; 500g suits continuous or larger runs.
