When you have a female auriculatus or ciliatus producing eggs, have any of you left calcium powders in a bowl for them to lick from? This is a practice I used to do with leopards as I had read that they readily accepted the powders out of the bowl during egg production. I haven’t heard of rhacodactylus doing it before but I was told that they do. Leaving a bowl out for them wouldn’t hurt but just wanted to know if anyone had ever witnessed them accepting the powders.

Thanks in advance for the replies!
