  • Flightless Fruit Flies

  • Flightless Fruit Flies are a perfect live feed for smaller reptiles, amphibians, spiders, and fish fry. They are easy to handle, can’t fly away and provide a nutritious diet rich in protein, fat, and vitamins. Locally cultured to thrive in Singapore’s tropical climate, they are reliable and hassle-free. There are two main subspecies: Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila hydei. Both are great options depending on your pet’s size and feeding habits.
  • Melanogaster

    Melanogaster

    Melanogaster

    Melanogaster Fruit Flies are the smaller of the two flightless fruit fly species (~2mm), making them perfect for tiny pets such as dart frogs, baby geckos, mantises and small fish. They are soft-bodied, easy to digest and full of nutrients, rich in protein, healthy fats , and vitamins A, B, and E. Our Melanogaster flies are flightless, they crawl or hop, making them easy to handle without mess. Their fast reproduction cycle ensures constant reliable feeder supply for small insectivores. 

    Care Instructions

    Keep your fruit flies at room temperature (24–28 °C) in the cup provided. Avoid direct sunlight and store them in a well-ventilated area. Replace cultures every 2–3 weeks to maintain a healthy population. If the culture starts to dry out, lightly mist the sides of the container to restore humidity.

  • Hydei

    Hydei

    Hydei

    Our Hydei flies are completely flightless and thrive in Singapore’s humid climate. With a slightly longer life cycle (around 14–16 days), they breed steadily and are easier to manage compared to faster-multiplying species. Their larger size (3–4 mm) makes them suitable for pets transitioning from tiny Melanogaster flies to bigger insects like pinhead crickets.
