I'd also like to know this??

No idea, but I know how you can get some for free, just look around the city! With this garbage strike still on I'm sure they're everywhere. Seriously though it can't be hard to farm them yourself..

Go to your local butcher, and get a cows leg or something with a little meat left on it.. Stick it in a black garbage bag for a couple days under the sun. poke a few holes in it with a pen.. and let it sit... You should have a hand full of them with in 3-4 days.. with a good bright sun.. Be sure to clothes pin your nose.. lol cause you won't like it when you open that bag!

and be sure to put it far from your house otherwise you could be in trouble with your spouse or your friends
But thats not complicated to grow them just smelly just be careeful to not let them in a too sunny place otherwise they ll die or transform. :good:

[pirata]

I know how smelly they can be....LOL
I've tried to breed them and although it's not difficult the "smell factor" played a big role, so I was trying to go the easier way, BUY THEM FROM SOMEONE ELSE.
Thanks a lot guys, I'll keep trying to find them around the city.

Try some pet stores or pet feed shops, they may have em.

Thats a great idea MB, pet store should definitely have them!

Do you get all the different one's over there as i do here?...Big, small, Pink, Red, White etc, but i wouldn't suppose there's much demand for them as you've only really got Panfish that would get excited over them, whereas 90% of our Fish will take them readily, it's only really Pike and Zander that obviously wouldn't take them. (That 6lb Record Perch was caught on Maggot's!)

Are live ones really much better than the preserved (I assume) ones you can get in bait and tackle or sporting goods shops?
