that may work. you should but a bunch of different worms in there. just don’t use super worms because they won’t eat those. also get some feeder roaches and a bunch of different time of feeders from LLLreptile.com

I would try some silkworms they are extremely nutritious. how was your tokay with the vet? was the vet nervous to handle it ?

phoenix worms are high in calcium so once i get them do i still have to dust ny crickets cause they are one of the highest bugs in calcium

i wouldn’t dusk them if they already have calicum in them. but if you wanted to make sure they got enough calicum you can still lightly dusk them.
