I use a phosphorus free calcium dust (with vitamin D3) on all the crickets I feed to my lizards. Moreover, I do have UV lighting. I have a hood on the cage that uses a very old light (I have it only to make the cage brighter), but I also have a UV coil that points towards their basking spot that always has a newer bulb. Both my lizards seem to be acting healthy. They are both eating fine, basking under the heat, exploring the cage, etc.

I've always tried avoiding the handling of my lizards, so I'm not sure how I can get his mouth open. The most I’ve ever done in the way of handling was getting ticks off wild caught lizards. If I get his mouth open, what should I look for?
