yeah, hate pinheads... at least FFs are predictable to a degree... - especially the flightless. On that topic though, has anyone tried adding things like lavender oil or something to media to make them smell nicer? - they're natural so I would imagine not harmful?!
i already have to get pinhead crickets for my other pets(veiled chameleon,crested gecko,salamanders)i have never given FFs a try but i think im willing to.how many should i start with to make a colony?
If you are looking for either wingless fruitflies or containers (I saw you were looking for deli cups in another discussion) I would recommend http://www.joshsfrogs.com/catalog/index.php
I am on a limited budget and I got both my fruitflies and containers from him and the fruitflies were mite free. =)
I have never had wingless fruitflies make a mess. They are so easy to culture.
