Tokays and Vit/min powder.

sutmae May 04, 2004 10:26 AM

Hi, is there a particular reason for the trend in dusting Tokays food rather than letting them help themselves to it from a dish?

Is it because the powder goes bad with the humidity or that tokays just don`t like dishes?

Dusting is to ensure your Tokays get calcium/vits. Tokays wont normally eat or drink out of a dish. I use a dish of calcium powder mainly to provide my gravid females a additional source of calci they will crave and require producing eggs.
