Misting with dusted crickets.

[Nicholasdeaan]

Once you've dusted your crickets or whatever feeder you at chose, is it ok to mist the enclosure and water your Cham or will it wash all the calcium off of the feeder?

Usually crickets tend to go to the top and stay in the corners, as far as I've observed, which I'd imagine would be far enough from the mist that they wouldn't get washed off too much.

Yeah that's usually what I've noticed. I'll give it a shot. I just started my chams supplementing today and just wanted to make sure she'd get the proper amounts.

Usually they eat them right away, as long as they are getting some with the calcium on them they should be okay.

They dont to last long in the viv if the chameleon is hungry enough. To be honest just wait till the chameleon has eaten a few then mist
