maggots

[tiddlertamer]

no jewish ones then that's a bit "ist"

 

 

You have me bang to rites! Gentles somehow transmorgified into gentiles. Homygod - I've transformed an old fashioned term for maggots (gentles) into a non Israeli tribe.

 

They're still in the £2.50 to £3.50 mark though...

Round this area "Lancashire" all the shops I frequent charge between £2 and £2.20 per pint which I thought was pretty expensive but looking at other posts it isn't at all.

Well I would'nt mind moving to lancs at those prices, just a bit tooo far to commute for a coupla pintsa maggots.

Next question

Whats the longest anyones managed to keep them going before they turn to nasty almost black casters. about 2 and half weeks I had some, a few were light brown casters and mostly sweaty ammonia smelling maggots but still caught with them.

I've had them stay in decent useable nick for 8wks in a frigo. I have some in the frigo at the minuite from just after crimbo and there's only a few changed to casters ( it's good to have tha casters mixed in though, even the black floaters). I suppose it depends on how fresh they are when you get em. A guide to their freshness is the size of the black blob behind the pointy end of the maggot, the bigger the blob the fresher they are. I think the blob is food by the way.
