So, we have 5-6 adults total now.
There are about 5 rather large fungus maggots in the pod, but the BSF shouldn't be adversely affected by them.
There were 15 crawl-off today. We have noticed that BSF tend to crawl off in the evening, likely because they are very dark-coloured and to limit predation.
We are finding at least 1 adult male in the crawl-off bucket each day.
At 11am today, after placing the pod in the sun, the temperature quickly climbed from 28.9C to 33.9C. The maggots were very active and feeding.
Last night, the minimum temperature was 17.2C which is low, but we still had quite a bit of crawl-off.
Rylo and I spent about 3.5 hours maggot-sitting and were able to discuss quite a few things as well as design the signs. I hope to have them produced very very soon.
