The media contains vitamins, minerals, probiotics, proteins lipids and fatty acids, enzymes, carotenoids and bioflavonoids. Everything needed to make the culture produce a ton of healthy flies.
When you receive a fresh culture you should give at least 10-12 days for the flies to lay eggs in the media. If your cup already contains pupa and larva you may start to feed flies to your animals immediately.
