I totally and wholeheartedly agree with this, and I do wish to always learn the how's and why's of this science.... I've never been very good at just doing as I'm told. :p Sue

No apology necessary - it's all useful information and a healthy debate and sharing differing thoughts, opinions and findings is always a good thing. My original question was answered.... we then took it to a new level of discussion. ;):)

Wow.... I really have gone crazy in my old age - I'm actually eager and excited to start hatching out flies! What has my world come to!?!?!?! :ROFLMAO: Sue

Thanks for all the advice, feedback and information..... I truly appreciate all the activity and input from ALL of you! I have learned over the years that a hobby is challenging, entails a lot of work, and is supposed to be fun and rewarding so I try to keep that in mind when taking on any...

Ugh, kept adding more and more stuff to my cart - he's got a lot of great stuff! Then got to check out.... $20 for shipping. :( His prices are great, though... wish he were closer. Sue
