Question about dusting/supplements...

[graytb2]

What feeders need dusting with supplements? My little man is currently getting: crickets, silkworms, phoenix worms, blue bottle flies, small super worms, and (occasionally) hornworms on a rotating basis. Crickets obviously get dusted... but do all the rest not? I'm mostly confused about the flies and the super worms, as I've seen that people dust mealworms.

If crickets are the only things getting dusted, do I need to worry that my cham is only getting supplements a couple days a week?

(my supplement = repashy calcium plus)

I usually dust supers and horns.

I would feed.crickets everyday. Just a smallet number and add other worms in a rotating fashion to keep the crickets his.staple diet and keep supplements in him daily. But i would diet supers and horns also

Supers should have a calcium dust supplement on them as well, if eaten very often. Supers should also be well gutloaded.
Well gutloaded silks I dont bother dusting usually.
I personally see no reason to have a stable/daily cricket diet. I think variety from day to day is good.

Great, thanks guys! Yes, all my feeders get well gut-loaded
