Hi

My guy was fed these as and when before he came to me.

He was hungry so took to other food, but then I treated him & for a week he played up, but he's adult, so all I offer is cricks/locusts & he has had to make do.

Found waxies are good for giving vits/calcium, as I know he will eat them. But then all his food is dusted.

Spotty.
