Hello everybody,

My name is Alexandra, I am a french journalist, preparing a documentary about the carcass of an elephant, and the way it is eliminated in the wild, by lions, hyenas, but also flies and beetles. We already shot the images, but we would like to add images of the transformation of the maggot into the adult fly. Therefore I need to shoot images of a breeding farm of flies. Ideally Chrysomya or Lucilia from the Calliphoridae family. If it is too difficult to find, any fly would do the job though. What's more, to make it all a little bit harder, I need to shoot those images in Paris region or at least France...

Does anybody here breed flies? Or knows where I could shoot a breeding near Paris ?

In advance, thanks a lot for your help !!
