It sounds good and hes eating all the salads your feeding him? Usually we recommend he get the bugs dusted w/ calcium D3 lightly coated 5 x per week once per feeding and vitamins w/ beta carotene 2 x per week dusted on the insects once per feeding --- this would be fed till hes approx one year then the calcium D3 is going to changed along w/ the times per week of the insects --- are you using a long tube fixture for a UVB?

He is eating most of them and I was giving the calcium once a day but noticed it may have been too much as his poop was showing a little yellow. Yes it is a uv tube light.

Ok so the brand and the bulb your using please and where is it inside the tank or top of screen? The UVB helps absorb / synthesize the calcium hes getting --- are you lightly coating the insects? You dont want them to look like a powdered donut
