You can or use a plastic tote no water- use carrots- that gives hydration- they won't eat greens-- you can feed potato's fruits and carrots- don't feed the dragons carrots tho too much vit a

Also I was thinking about getting this Dubia chow. And the place said they ship 2-3 days and says will be delivered by Saturday. What’s you experience with them does it come early or just pretty much when it says will be there.
Where did you order from ? Dubiaroaches.com is usually a day early -- Reptilianarts is pretty much spot on -- check you email and it will tell you usually if its out for delivery

Hello just wanted to make sure before dubias arrive. They are delayed and coming later than Saturday she said around Tuesday. I wanted to ask if I still dust the dubias as much as crickets and if not how much do I dust them with calcium multi vitamins and do I still use vitamin d3 2 times a month???
Coco needs calcium 5 x per week calcium D3 once per feeding dust the dubias like the crickets and vitamins w/ beta carotene 2 x per week once per feeding- is Coco eating salads?
Karrie
Yes she is and this might be a dumb question but what does per feeding mean I don’t wanna misinterpret something and give to much of one supplement. I’m giving her a salad everyday and her poop has started to have more liquid in it causing it to be not really together. I there is many other meaning to this but my guess is it’s just she is getting to much water through the salad.
Once per feeding means if you feeding her more than one time a day-- her basking temps are 95-110 and your uvb is a what? Where in the tank is it?
Karrie
She needs calcium every feeding of the insects so that would be 5 x per week w/ the vitamins 2 x per week -- the UVB is inside the tank or on top of screen?

Ok and it's 6-8 inches from basking decor and NO COVER over the bulb-- it needs to be exposed- trying to eliminate the lighting for cause of runny stools- the poop does it smell so bad it makes you want to leave the room? That could be a sign of parasites- they also cause runny stools- trying to rule all this out--- if all this is good then it could be too much hydration - are you feeding alot of squash anything w/ a lot of water content - watermelon cucumbers gr pepper?

It has a smell but nothing terrible not really bad. I feed collard greens and mustard greens with butternut and or yellow squash everyday. Then fruits like blueberry and others as a treat a couple times a week.
