heres a picture of him! hes 6 inches long! how old does that mean he is? hes going to come in the mail tuesday and i have to go to the post office to pick him up. i hope me makes it through the mail ok !
ok, so if i do 2 or 3 feedings a day, i should only dust one of those times? instead of all three or two? and the other times would be without any dusting? then two days no calcium, but instead vitamins for one feeding, and the rest regular also?LJean":d098a said:Most babies will eat more than 30 crickets a day. You want to feed as much as he will eat at each feeding. Dusting the crickets with calcium (one feeding a day) for 5 days, and dusting with vitamins (one feeding) for two days a week, is what is recommended here.

Your set up looks great. Did you build it yourself?
Def. feed 3 times a day and give greens in between. Those small babies need lost of food as they grow so quick the first year. He is a doll. Make sure you post pictures as he grows.

Yeah, he could eat 50-100 crix a day, but you can dust just one of those feedings. You can order crix in bulk online for a lot cheaper than $23/1000.

He's a cutie! Best of luck!
