    FYI the maggots aren't slimy or gross like you would think. Can feed them fruit and veggie scraps so this makes for a nice closed loop system for raising chickens, ducks and in my case a resque Ani. Look up black soldier fly larvae for lots of different options. The bucket method is very cool. By

    Some maggots can be harvested for fish bait, too. And be sure to harvest the maggots before they become flies.

    Technically they are black soldier fly larvae or bsfl. They grow to about an inch. Don’t smell at all and is about 30% protein. It eat nearly anything and fast too!

    @dreamsalamander Před 2 měsíci +2

    Can this be modified to accommodate black soldier fly larvae, like having a place to attach corrugated cardboard? Since bsf only lay their eggs not directly on, but adjacent to, the food. The black soldier fly kit plans out there are quite difficult for someone like me

    Just drill a hole at the bottom of the rotted meat bucket and put it on top of the maggot bucket.

    This is brilliant thankyou for sharing
    Just watched farm with guinea pigs cleaning weeds and keeping grass mown and then cooking them for food. And another channel has sprouts for chicken and rabbit food. Have seen years ago meat rabbits fed with just barley sprouts and were fat. Australia is in chaos we have shootings and car bombings daily very little on news was on CNN in states. Have anymore ideas for shtf ideas will be muchly appreciated.
    Stay safe 🙏👍

      Thank you for bringing this to light! Had a friend who married an Australian woman, and they honeymooned in Australia. When he got back to the states, it was just as the big push to turn in fire arms was happening and he predicted the shtf .
      The doctors killed him during the lockdowns in 2020. 😭

    Nice design. I’m gonna try a couple. wonder if the maggots would be smart enough to go down to the meat in they hatched in the bottle. You could put some cardboard in the bottle for the flies to lay on.
