Temperate Springtails on Calcium Clay / Mature 8 oz Cultures / FREE SHIPPING

Description: Please also visit us at: frogandfrond.com ***FREE SHIPPING TO CONTIGUOUS UNITED STATES*** Temperate Springtails on Calcium Bearing Clay in 8 oz deli cups. All cultures were started at least 5-6 weeks prior to shipping and will be at full production when they arrive.Collecting springtails to feed your animals is so much easier with clay cultures than traditional charcoal cultures; just flip it over and tap! The clay media will stick to the container while springtails pop out. Our cultures contain over 200% of the livable surface area compared to similar clay cultures in the same size containers. We take the time to carefully spread the clay up the sides of each culture. We also apply the clay in a way to produce plenty of texture (mountains and valleys if you're a springtail) to further increase productive living area. This increases culture productivity and longevity. We also offer Calcium Bearing Clay Springtail Media along with our cultures to make your own springtail cultures! Works for any type of springtails. The clay comes in powder form. 1 pound of clay will make 4-6 cultures in 8 oz deli cups. We recommend using at least 3 oz of the clay powder to make one 8 oz culture for longer lasting, more productive cultures. Each order with the clay media comes with instructions on how to make springtail cultures. We usually ship live insects on Mondays, Tuesdays and Saturdays to avoid delivery delays over the weekend. We may have to wait for a more ideal weather window if our location and/or your location are forecast to experience extreme weather or temperatures. **We Cannot Arrange For A Package To Be Held From Our End. Please Read Below**Live arrival is guaranteed when shipped between 30F and 85F. If the springtails arrive dead, please contact us within an hour of delivery to be entitled to replacement or refund. We ship via USPS Priority Mail. We recommend that you have your package held up at your local USPS location for pick-up, if your location is forecast to experience extreme temperatures. You can arrange a hold online here: https://www.usps.com/manage/hold-mail.htm HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN SPRINGTAIL CULTURES:Just put some clay powder in a container, then add water at a 1:2 (water:clay) ratio by weight. Mix the clay and water evenly, or let it sit for a day until the clay absorbs all the water. Spread the now wet clay to cover the inside of the container for a greater surface area for springtails to live on, if you like. Add some springtails and feed them (we prefer to use active dry yeast and/or brewer's yeast). Put an air-tight lid on. Check on them and feed them once a week or so, mist lightly if the clay seems dry. It is important to not over feed them. Do not get the clay too wet. Typically cultures reach their full production within 5-6 weeks, depending on how many springtails you seed the cultures with. For example, if you use 3 oz of clay powder, add 1.5 oz of water. *We recommend you wear a mask and work outside when working with dry clay powder. It contains very fine, dusty particles.
