How often to feed insects to Lygos?
Hi folks,
Quick question, I'm new to these lizards so bear with me.
I'm planning obtaining a pair of Lygodactylus williamsi within the next few months, and I've been concocting a feeding regime so I'm prepared.
I intend to feed the usual fruit mixture (possibly mixed with Repashy base mix) plus vitamins, bee pollen and honey 1-2 times a week and perhaps try some low-fat strawberry yoghurt.
My main question is, how often should I offer insects? I was thinking of offering fruit flies once every day and crickets three times a week in place of the fruit flies. And finally, should I put calcium with the insects or with the fruit mixture and if it's the former then how often should I dust the crickets?
Sorry for all the questions, snakes are normally my thing so I'm very new to this supplementation business.
