Yes, it can be over done. Once a few or every two weeks should be fine. Try dipping the lower part of the worm. That way the worm is all natural tasting at the beginning and the calcium will make it in at the end.

yea i was more scared of him wasting the powder but he got a good bit in his mouth he kept trying to get it down and then i noticed he had a little calcium beard he looked funny especially trying to wipe it off

When I remember to use the powder...yes, I know...bad Marnie...I use it every 3 weeks and I just dust it lightly on the food. That is great that your garter liked it...I have a very hard time getting mine to eat food that has the calcium on it. I would say that you may have gotten a little much on there if he had calcium powder on his face though....just a light dusting will do.

well i have had him for probably over a month now but i just kinda dipped about 1/2 inch of the worm in it. how do you guys just "dust" it without getting to much

[EasternGirl]

I just take a pinch of the powder in my finger and kind of sprinkle it all over the food so it looks lightly dusted...but Steve knows more about this than I do...if he says you can dip the lower part...then that should be fine...I'm not sure how much to dip though. Steve?

I dip the lower 1/3rds of the crawler and sprinkle on worm pieces just like Marnie does.

hmm i will have to try it a little different so that there is not to much on the worm like last time
