Good evening friends.
Imma going to be a snot and tell y'all that we just got a pretty sweet donation today, but I'm not going to post it until the first of May to make it fair for all eligible members, with the first 48 hours being available only to donors. Don't think of this as a cheap ploy to get you to donate to the seed bank, but, if you do donate before May first, it will enable you to request these before other members if you so desire, and if you're quick. You will definitely have to be quick.
I will tell you that they are freshly harvested, of species that we don't commonly see in the seed bank, and that when we do get them, they go fast. However, there are only three packs.
I looked them over and determined that the donor portioned them out very well, I wouldn't want to try to split them up more.
Countdown to May first begins!

True. I wouldn't wait on those.
I will say that these seeds do not have tha shelf life of most other carnivorous plant seeds, but long enough to wait a couple of weeks to let the suspense build.

Oh, yeah. Appendix 1 all day long. Plus, their shelf life is like 53.7 hours.

@Carnies, Not so fast, there! Have you even seen the Blue Bottle Fly Breeder's Forum? The Egg & Maggot Exchange sub-forum alone is incredible!

I must agree. As Diptera forums stack up, BBFB's forum is in my top five. No, scratch that, my top three.
However, I have to use every ounce of my self control in the Egg & Maggot area. Thank goodness my wife only gives me enough money for Twinkies and lottery tickets, or I'd buy every pupae I could find.

And the work they're doing crossing the SuperSize greges with the SuperSpeed types is truly astonishing! But $10 an egg?

I don't know. Attach a tether and a camera to the supersized/fast hybrid, and you have a $10 drone.
