Once the males have wings, they're adult, and they're good to go.

Sorry, guestimation about 20 mm. They grow damn fast with sufficient heat, food and humidity.

I keep mine in a large clear plastic tub with brass screen cut and molded to the top. I fill the tub with eggcrate a few inches from the top. Temp. at about 90 to 100F. Water and feed veggies every other day. I also keep a small bowl of wheat flour mix in at all times. This works great for me. It might take some time to get started but keep with it. The pay off is grand.
