The temperature was cooler for a stretch here near Detroit, so a week ago I decided to have another crack at incubating.

Celiac.com Sponsor (A13):
As luck would have it, a day after I set up my jars, the temperature shot right back up again. I don't have A/C in my apartment, so I figured I had just wasted my time, but this morning when I checked one of the small jars I found things were hopping! In just a couple of drops there were all the larvae I would need, bopping and weaving, looking healthy as all heck. I didn't bother to check the three other jars, I'll report on them in another post when I do my inoculation tomorrow. 

I'm at a bit of a loss to explain this feast or famine behavior for yields. Best I can suggest is that people plan for this variability by allowing enough time so they don't get caught out. My last inoculation was 4/25/24, so I would expect the hookworms in my gut to start dying off roughly in the next 30–60 days. By inoculating tomorrow, I can be reasonably sure there will be no loss of immune modulation coverage and I get to keep eating my shredded wheat in the morning.
