Special Orders

Embryo Collections
Embryo collections are done on 8x10 1/2 in. styrofoam plates which are covered with a thin layer of molasses and agar. An average overnight lay for one plate can be anywhere from
3-12 grams per plate depending on the harvesting numbers as well as what day the embryos are collected (the later in the week the stronger the number of embryos).

Harvesting Cages
These harvesting cages are used to grow flies in larger quantities than stock bottles allow. Our cages are 5 1/2in tall by 4 1/2in in diameter with a screw-on lid and are filled with approx.170mL. of molasses media. We innoculate our cages with a wild type stock but the cages can be used by labs to grow other strains. Harvesting cages can be made upon request.

Adult Fly Collections
A collection of wild type (canton S) adult flies can be made upon request.

Please feel free to ask about any other special orders that we might be able to do for you and we will do our best to help you.
