Hi,
There's been some larvae action happening in the BioPod during the past 24 hours or so. Most of the larvae appear to be those of houseflies - probably pigging out on the quail that I put in there three days ago.
Today, when I opened the lid, I spotted a female BSF in the unit. Hopefully, she's laid her eggs in the unit.

hi Gary
remember to keep some for me -
i got hold of a few australian soldier flies down here in melbourne but they seem very temperamental
i'm hoping the real bsfs will be better
Hi Gerry,
It's with you in mind that we've cranked the BioPod up.
I've seen a female BSF in the 'Pod but she doesn't seem to have laid eggs.
Yesterday, I saw these in there but I suspect they're still housefly maggots that are interested in the dead quail in the 'Pod.
