Locusts- how often?

Postby andyfrance001 » Wed Sep 17, 2014 10:16 am

How often do you feed your skink locusts? I give my skink locusts every two weeks and he loves them, chases them around eating them up. A friend of mine gives his skink locust once per week? Of course alongside this is his greens, fruits and dogfood.

I would say there would be no limit, since they are really healthy due to them being a whole food. Make sure to keep them for a bit to gutload them.

Just make sure he doesn't get too fat with eating these as well as dogfood.

Yes when I get them I place greens in the tub for a few days and sprinkle of water and then dust them with Nutrobal calcium/multivitamin supplement before putting in the tank, thanks for reply.
