Mealworm question

[dsmalex97]

Should I be dusting the mealworms when I offer them?

I've just been putting them in a little dish, without dusting. I dust the crickets, but I just thought of dusting the mealworms, should I be?

I dust all the feeders and leave a dish of calcium in their enclosure.

When i offer mealies, i put them in the bowl that has the calcium in in and they generally dust themselves.

I mist the mealworms with water, apply the calcium d3, then offer them to my geckos. That seems to work well for me.

I tried that the other day, and the mealworm got good and coated with calcium plus, I put it in Dex's tank and he was scared to death of it and actually ran away from it! Dex is a bit of a sook though.
