I've been using these two mixed together in a 50/50 ratio

And I have been using one of these to dust my crickets and other insects.

I have not dusted and Fruits or Veg. 1 because my Dragon isn't keen on them as it is. And 2 because he's eating 30 or so dusted Crix a day I figure it wasn't needed.

I don't have crickets, but I plop my roaches in a sandwich bag with some of the powder in it and shake it up. It also gets my dragon excited for food since it seems his eyesight is sharp enough to see them crawl around in the bag as I'm picking them out. :p

Ditto....I do it exactly the same way to dust my beardie's roaches!

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
