How to raise Fruit Flies

How to Raise a Coltur of Fruit Fly's. We had two praying mantis for a wile. So we had to have some food for them. We did not want to buy a expensive fruit fly farm. We found how to make your own here. The mesherments are not in standred form and we had a little trouble with them, so I will give you the measurements that worked for us.

2oz of beer

3 tablespoons of potato flakes

2 ½ teaspoons of vinegar

1/8 a teaspoon of yeast

Mix the beer, potato flakes and vinegar together then add the yeast. It should look smooth and creamy when you are done.

DIY Dog Chew toy

I will teach you how to make a dog “Chew Rope” toy. So if you want to make a toy for your dog this is a good way.

Step One: Cut 27 pieces of yarn about 4 feet long.

Step Two: Cut 1 piece of yarn to 3 feet long, that will act as a ruler.

Step Three: Take 3 pieces of the 4 foot yarn, tie them all together at the top.

Step Four: Use a piece of tape to hold the pieces to a table.

Step Five: braid the three pieces together,in a traditional braid.

Step Six:When you think it is long enough, measure with the 3 foot piece of yarn. You want it at least this long.

Step Seven:If it is long enough tie it off at the end of the braid.

Step Eight : Cut the ends off that are not braided. Leave just about ½ an inch below the knot, so it won't come untied.

Step Nine: repeat steps steps 3-8 for the rest of the strings. you should have nine braids.

Step Ten: take three of your braids, tie all of them together 1-2 inches down from the top.

Step eleven: braid 3-5 inches. Tie a knot a the bottom of the braid.

Now comes the tricky part, but you can do it!

Step twelve: you might have more lose below the knot, at the bottom than at the top. If you do 1-2 inches down pinch the braid between your fingers and cut it just below that. Now retie it, do that for all three braids.

Step Thirteen: repeat steps 10-12. You should now have three braids. (make sure to make the braids on all three as close to size as you can)

Step Fourteen: tie the three braids together, tape them to the table, braid all three braids together once you reach the end of the braids tie a knot at the bottom. Now you are done!
