how do you actually make them what do you need?

well done

what ingredients did you use & flavour

most boilies are basically made from many different things but basic mix is usually the same here are a few to look at
semolina powder
rice flour
maize flour
soya flour
2 eggs
milk powder
boilies are mainly full of a high protein / milk protein

mix em all up then add your choosen dye & flavour mix again add eggs to make a paste then roll en out into balls then boil for about 3 minutes

i hope this helps
or has someone else got aq good recipe to share with us
