Blowfly Blue Bottle117 viewsI wanted several specimens all alike so I bought maggots from a fishing shop. Half a pint, I only wanted 30, but you cant buy 30. 30 were pupated and 27 emerged. Females have a wide spacing between the eyes, males almost touch in front of the ocelii. To re-produce liver is the recomended food in captivity. After 3 days the putrid smell was so ghastly the experiment was forced to an end.
