Why do we dust with calcium?

I was thinking about it but then looked at all suplements that I have...then I decided it was just easier to vary the gut loading diet with dark green and dark leafy green veggies and fruits...I also just bought a 2:0 calcium to phosphorous supplement that I sprinkle on the cricket food for a little extra boost...However I am still trying to figure out agood schedule for all the supplements

I think also that it has more to do with what the insects in the wild are eating, not the types of insects.I add crushed egg shells into my got load mix, this alows me to dust less. but I still dust at least once a week with my females and twice when they are gravid.
