My beardie is almost a year old, and is healthy except that I can’t get him to eat greens when they have supplements dusted on them. Which makes it hard for me to feed them to him since now that he’s older he doesn’t eat bugs as often.
A few questions:
1: I feed him BSFL/nutrigrubs and have seen several places that since these are calcium rich, you don’t have to dust the feeders with calcium. Is this true?
2. Even if that’s the case, I don’t want him to be calcium or vitamin deficient. So it’s important he eats his greens when supplemented. How often should he be eating calcium supplement per week? Vitamins? My understand is a few times a week.
3. How much am I supposed to be mixing on to the greens per administration?
4. Lastly, I noticed in cleaning up a poop that he had what appeared to be a fully formed BSFL in his poop. Is that normal? He is still active during middle of day, but likes to hang on his hammock on the cool side later part of afternoon/evening.
