Are calciworms the same as reptiworms? I have a bug dealer near me that told me about these so called reptiworms that have a lot of calcium, protein and fat in them...not too sure what they are though and if they are safe to feed. She said they are a good alternative to crix.

I use a smallish plastic box covered with screen and empty it daily, then mop up excess water with a towel... the box usually catches most of the water though...:cool:

I would not put anything on it. Either just keep it clean or take it to your vet for a cream! Some ingredients in this stuff can be lethal to these guys...

Okay! Sounds good! Wasn't sure what wattage bulb to go with, will try a 50watt housebulb? I have the lamp hanging above the cage. And I will def get some fresh food for the crix! I got 500 at the reptile show and I would really like to keep them alive. So far so good!
