I've now physically witnessed Frank eat a waxworm covered in the mixed powders
The relief is considerable!
Hopefully this is the beginning of the recovery from short tongue. Feeding guides for the multivitamins would suggest that I dust with the mixed once a week and the calcium D3 every other time but I'll obviously have to tailor this to Frank.

I've noticed a definite pattern emerging of his eating for two or three days, a two day break during which he relieves himself in the water then back to eating on the third day.
This has also allowed me to tailor his dusting of calcium and vitamin D3 better ...
