By the time you recived the fly, please check the date i write on cup, that's the date i set it up. fly need 10-12 days hatch lots. so it may need wait few days after you recived it, because i try to get you as fresh as.

This is full set up, each culture media can use around 3-5 weeks, so you will have lots of Flightless Fruit Fly around 5 months. if you need more media, can check my other list.
