How to feed my lizard crickets?

Question

Hi we got a Baby bearded dragon today with live food etc.

How do we feed the crickets to him?

we thought about putting the tub into the vavarium and letting a few jump out but we are ment to dust them with this calcium and vitamin powder?

Answer 1

you should put the live crickets in there and let him get the food on his own. some animals only go for things that move,  

Answer 2

open up the corner of the cricket box use tweezers to pick them up and rub them in the calcium . locust dont bite so if u get them u can use our hands to pick them up

Answer 3

Well my friend has a lizard that eats live crickets. I think you just sprinkle the powder on, and put a few in live.  

Answer 4

An easy way is to catch a few crickets and put them in either a large zip-lock bag or a container with a lid. Add some of the calcium/vitamin dust beforehand and then shake 'em up a bit. Make sure you don't add the calcium dust to all of your crickets at once - just what you're feeding at the time.  

Answer 5

Make sure not to use too many crickets. Just enough for him to eat within a few minutes. Catch them and stick them in a plastic baggy with the vitamin supplements and shake them around a bit. Crickets hate being dusted and can clean themselves off so only put in a few at a time so that you don't waste your vitamin supplements. Be sure to put the crickets where he can spot them right away. It may be better if you put one in and wait for him to finish it before putting in another.

Answer 6

sure go ahead. pour a tiny bit in the cricket box, close it and shake it. then let them go and your little beardie will have fun and calcium. (I always go by experience and that is the best way to do it.)

Answer 7

ok you get the calcium and put it in whatever you have in the crickets in and you do a shake and bake procedure :) trust me it works.
