I've never ever dusted before until last night. I just got a new pac man and the peeps over on that board said dusting is best even for my two trees. But after Hellen, my wild caught Grey, ate several of them she started acting lethargic and, well, drunk.
She stumbled around and when I picked her up to get a good look at her her eyes were only half open and almost blurry (like a drunk person). This morning when I checked on her she was sitting there opening and closing her mouth and had goo on either side of her mouth mixed with the dirt from her substrate and she was still acting off.
I havn't seen Percy, my store bought green whos never had dusted crickets either cuse the pet store dosn't dust, eat any so I'm thinking of taking the rest of the crickets out before she can. And I'm thinking of taking them away from my pac too.
The dust I got was Flukers Calcium with Vitamin D3 (the stuff I was told to get).
If I dont feed her any more dusted crickets will Hellen be ok or should I be concerned?
Either way I'm taking the powder back to the store and not dusting again. I gut load my crickets with calcium and vitamin fortified food and water gel before the babies eat them and thats worked so far. I think we'll go back to that....
