    Feeding spiny flower nymphs Pinheads??

    So I just added between 6 to 8 fruit flies per cup. And I re-misted the cups a second time 12 hours later today.  The good news is I did see a couple of cups with no fruit flies in it at all!!! but that’s just a couple out of 61 😕 in any case now they have 7 to 8 fruit flies per cup. I hope...
