Hi, I understand BSFL is having a lot of calcium and need not be dusted with calcium when feed to beardie. But may I know how about after they turn into flies, do they still have high calcium?

Because my beardie he loves the flies (never enough) and not so keen on the larvae, so I'm not sure when he is eating flies only (10-20 per day), do I need to dust them with calcium?

My beardie has been having flies only for the past 1 week, these few days his head is trembling, is it because of calcium deficiency? Thank you!

I really have no clue, but I think that's a very good question. I'm sure some others will have some input in the morning

I don't know but the calcium level in fruit flies is less than what it is for the larval stage.

Hi there a little update we went from a 50 watt heat lamp to a 100 watt basking halogen heat lamp hahaha I saw some comments about it being so close so I made sure to put it a ruler away from her
Has anyone seen this before? Something in the corner of his mouth
