Fly Pupae

Live Fly Pupae (Mustica domestica) are ideal for feeding to frogs, lizards, arachnids, scorpions, turtles, birds, poultry and fish. Fly Pupae and hatched flies are nutritious and high in protein.

Fly Pupae are a valuable addition to the diet of many native animals including platypus and echidnas. Flies are also used for pollinating food crops. Deactivated Fly Pupae are nutritious and can be kept for months in the freezer. Our feeder insects are grown on our family farm in Australia and shipped to your door fast. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Are flying insects available to buy for pet feeding?

Yes, we have insects like black soldier fly larvae, and fly pupae, that can be hatched into their flying form. These are perfect for pets like frogs, who love to catch their prey in the air. 

What are fly pupae used for?

Live fly pupae (Musca domestica) hatch into flies, giving frogs, lizards and fish moving aerial prey to chase — excellent enrichment for insectivorous pets.

Where can I buy fly pupae in Australia?

Reptile Realm sells Australian-grown live fly pupae online, delivered fresh with a live arrival guarantee to QLD, NSW, ACT, SA and VIC.

How do you hatch fly pupae into flies?

Keep fly pupae at room temperature in a ventilated container; within days they hatch into flies that frogs and reptiles can chase and catch.

How do you store fly pupae?

Refrigerate fly pupae to delay hatching, then bring them to room temperature when you want flies to emerge for feeding.

disappointing experience and fake friendliness that doesn't actually translate to real customer service

Hi there, I think that the fake may be your review unfortunately. I cannot find an order associated with your email but a google search brings up a competitors page. I am happy to help you if you have a real problem, please reach out. Regards, Lisa
