Pacman bone disease and calcium defeciency

[Hypnotic]

I do breed my own dubias, I mainly feed nightcrawlers and dubias, with an occasional mouse or some other treats. Breeding crickets is out of the question, I think they are disgusting and require way too much upkeep, and would rather buy them and dust them.
My feeders here are mainly fed oranges, apples, bananas, carrots and chicory, and always have acces to dry dogfood, because I've heard it's an excellent source of proteines. Crickets at times are often fed leftovers from my geckos enclosure. (crested gecko diet)
I always have known gutloading is very important, but din'd know that it could actually replace supplements.
My animals don't get sunlight, I only have nocturnal animals here, and I use TL lights to light up all my enclosures. While some people would argue with that, I strongly agree with the idea of nocturnal animals not requiring UVB or sunlight, but offcourse, I also supplement to make up for that.

chickory sounds interesting. any story behind that? just imagine how it would work in the wild, the frogs would get all their vitamins and minerals from the prey they eat and the sunlight they recieve. stick to natural gut-loading and your good to go.

I actually buy alot of it, since my prairiedog is fed almost purely on a vegetable diet, occasional fruit and supplemented with insects and seeds. So when I have some too much, I like to give it to the feeders.
