Dusting Phoenix Worms?

[PuffyLuv123]

So I ordered some Phoenix worms yesterday (they were shipped today) and I read that they were high in calcium, so do they still need to be dusted? This might be kind of a "DUH!" question but i thought i should ask.
Thanks! Im very excited to get them!!

No need to dust them with calcium but you might want to dust with vitamins once a week.

Nope not at all there are super high in cal. The tricky part with some dragons is getting them to eat them like they do crickets. I had mine on crickets for the first 3 months then decided to replace them with worms as a staple, they will eat them but not as intrested in them as they are crickets. Ive i feed them the worms untill they stop eating and then immediately show them a cricket they will go ape.... The worms are soo much cleaner and have great properties which is why i decided to make the switch

Ok, thanks. Im gonna pick up some vitamin dust tomorrow along with the worms.
As for them being difficult to switch to, that wont be a problem. Zelda doesnt actually like crix... she used to but then she decided they were gross and she preferred worms. So..... I think it'll work out just fine.
:mrgreen: So yup! I cant wait!

Ok I have a question I just ordered some Phoenix Worms for my baby and was just wondering how others store them? My local pet store is telling me to put them in the refrigerator, but not all that confident with their advice.
