So I wanting to keep BSFL can I just put them in my fridge and they would be fine and not grow? What is the lowest point they can handle?

They usually last for a couple of weeks on the counter - you can put them on the door of your fridge and they will not grow -- I have done both - I am working on some now that are several weeks old and have not turned yet -- it is up to you how you want to store them

Your fridge is usually too cold unless you put them in the door of the fridge where it's usually the warmest.
But they really well do fine at room temp for a week or two IME. Some start to turn but the majority will stay in their larval stage.

I buy Instar 2 BSLF , and they last over 4 weeks before I start getting lots of flies emerging.
The flies are good hatchling food too , slow moving, don't bight and very nutritious.

I would probably put them in the door of my fridge because I still have a baby bearded dragon so they cant grow that big.KarrieRee":3aek6cbf said:

Even full grown BSFL are perfectly fine for a small sub 12g hatchling because they are very soft bodied, the white very wriggly instar 2s are more attractive to a hatchling
who may never have seen them before.
The brown Instar that are still wriggling is OK too, but are a little more chewy.
The Pupa are fine for larger hatchlings and juveniles.
The flies are great hatchling food.
